now get em installed and take pics!
also, i think the IDI cover would look good if you sanded the "high output" and "quad 4" down so they had the polished look.
yeah thats what i wanted to do, but Im just gonna leave it like that i dont want to @!#$ it up. Kinda like the RB20 engine

Perhaps it will be when it runs.
Nice looking parts bud.
I think the parts came out nice. i like the color. one thing i hate about alero's is the lack of aftermarket. If you think that body kit you have is the best looking one in your own eyes, thats great and all is well... but come on, don't you wish they made more/cleaner/better to chose from? lol
On the other hand....you have other fingers.

^they do make tons of aftermarket parts for an alero. When looking for performance look it up under cavalier or sunfire or just install Quad 4 parts. As for bodykits there are currently 3 kits available plus 1 in the making that should be available soon (OSV ALERO BODYKIT coming soon). But I love my dam Oldsmobile

well I dont want it to be exactly like skilz so I want mine to be a bit unique so I will have my HO manifold dipped in chrome or polished up. I just love this color and the finished product. I just cant wait to install this bad boy in so I can cruise without the hood. Funny thing is no one fixes up aleros so shouldnt have to worry about my ride getting stolen like hondas around here. (knock on wood)

I do my own, it's cheap and easy as long as it will fit in a standard kitchen oven.

wow i didnt know there were that many. im scared to think that yours is the cleanest and best looking lol. nothing wrong with your kit at all by any means, as long as like you said, you love your car. but im willing to bet the blitz kit is on of the kits made for em lol.... *cringe* lol. but you need to definately post pics once you get all these parts ON the motor
im psyched to see how it all comes together.
