Much prettier. Don't like the aftermarket wires or radiator cap, even if the wires are pretty, 'tho.

What did you do to clean up the TB / valve cover / exhaust manifold shield?

What's wrong with NGK wires? They seem to be of fairly decent quality. Much better than Bosch at least. I remember not being particularly impressed with the original wires in my car... when they fell apart during plug replacement, before I knew to use the appropriate grease between them and the plugs.

My bad -- didn't think NGK came in blue. Nothing wrong with NGK...it's the only brand other than Denso I'll use for the high tension stuff in my rig.

The only NGK wires RockAuto sells for my car are actually blue. I didn't even specifically pick that color. But I like them... some color under the hood ain't so bad.

I think it looks great. Huge improvement! I personally like the blue myself. If you can afford the headers and you don't have to smog the car, I say go for it!

GET THE SPRINGS!
Much better mod.

& idk, your radiator is brown, it should be black.
If it works, keep it!
