Rob_Mitchell Posted April 7, 2011 Author Share Posted April 7, 2011 Well as promised by paul my pulley set arrived today and all i can say is WOW . They look really nice and i had 'GOLD RUSH' engraved around the edge of each pulley which really sets them apart from any other. I tried to take decent pics of the engraving but they are far to shiney but even the font is done in crazy writing... awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc_p Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Only just properly read this thread and wow, didn't realise how much you were putting into this car. Personally I'm not into 'blingy' engine bays, but I do respect the work you have put into it. Now stop polishing and get installing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now stop polishing and get installing cheers mate, polishing and chroming is the easy bit, im missing all sorts of sensors and need to plumb things in which is a headache. im sure ill get there in the end.

sdistc Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Have I missed it, or are you going to change the fittings to gold-plated or silver? The red really stands out, and not in a good way IMO. Otherwise, this is looking fantastic!
