looks nice guy. i like the blue. couple suggestions:
1. if you're going to get the radiator cap spoon (its a good idea, not thought through)...get the oil cap spoon too..heh..you dont want to be that guy..you know. the one with nike shoes, adidas pants, and a puma shirt...makes you look bad. and spoon is better..heh 2. get the header as soon as you can...doesnt matter what you do to your engine..that damned heat shield kills it. 3. same as #1 but with the tie bar..get the same..like spoon or mugen.. 4. the blue is awesome. dont change it....ever. where did you get all heater hoses? im trying to change those on mine.

thanks for all the suggestions..
i do like the idea about keeping the brands the same. the spoon oil cap is really expensive!! it looks just like the DC silver one but says spoon in black on it... damn those spoon guys hehe.. oh yea should i get spoon plug wires to go along with my spoon caps? they have blue boots and they are only $276! :finger:as far as the hoses, it's just wire loom.. i bought it from www.streetbeatcustoms.com lemme see if i can find the actual page.. they have a ton of colors but it looks like you like the blue. i bought it before pep boys started carrying it but they have it now too, its a lil more expensive.. heres the direct link to the loom.. i bought a pack of 1/4" and a pack of 1/2" just like R-R said in his how to back in the day http://www.streetbeatcustoms.com/hotwirwirloo.html

oh i know spoon can be way too expensive sometimes..but it can be worth it...i dont know about the spoon plug wires though...just cos they are slightly different in color. which sometimes looks good...but i dont know about with that blue. try another color, it may sound wierd..but try orange or green (try this place too http://www.hosetechniques.com ). i know that vortech makes a sweet fuel rail, and you can actually get it in a blue anodized color..which would look nice. then they also have a purple anodized fuel pressure regulator..it would look sweet. especially with the fuel rail. its what i did.
my engine is almost completely yellow and purple. yellow/purple valve cover, yellow vacuum hoses w/ purple clamps. anodized purple pressure reg. purple plug wires. purple anodized throttle body. i went the other way cos i've seen a lot of blue and red engines...but i like your blue. too bad i didnt see that like two months ago.

dude, goto http://www.hosetechniques.com
they are right on the front page. listed as turbo hoses but its the same thing. it comes in all sizes. and i think the only colors they have for them are red and black.
