yea. i was checking it out while i was installing the ic the other day...you know, right before i dropped the intercooler on my face causing a nice bloody lip...and i just thought it was a shame to hide all its charge cooling beauty. but i guess it makes my car a little more of a sleeper...not...

i guess its kind of a thing of taste...in my head it looked better than it did when i saw pics. but that job is very clean and well done.
