Looks great!

Is it possible to see if they (or Vintage) can paint the engine bay and more importantly the nose black while the drivetrain is still not in the car?

ITstock

They used to be black, most of the engine bay is clad with stainless so not that much of the fiberglass shows. The protective film is covering the SS in the pic so it looks VERY white. I looked at the cars with white at the show in Atlantic City and it really didn't look much different to me than my black one (on the BDR I sold), once all of the "stuff" is in there I thought it looked pretty cool.

My car has white, and if I had white strips I would like it. But I don't. The white looked awkward/out of place on the front of my car. I painted the nose area black, and just for the sake of cleaning if the motor ever gets pulled, the engine bay is being painted. ...just a suggestion while it's an easy job, but you obviously already know what you are getting.
