    there is so much going on that is awesome custom work.
    the topside radbox, the complex multifitting loop, and of course the dragon.

    you just need to touch it up a bit...
    I trust this is all Dremel work, so you prolly got a couple of those stone grinders,
    take that to the edges for smoothing, and then a little model paint black to cover the exposed silver.
    or just wrap it all up in carbon fiber!!

    Can't wait to see your lights work out....
    Very impressive bro.

          Nicely Done! I love how you made the external radiator fit in.

            I was scanning though the comments and I apologize if it was mentioned but I simply missed it but what did you wrap around the external rad?

              I used a lighting panel for a florescent ceiling light. Ones used in a drop ceiling. I cut up and bent it in to a box using my heat gun.
              It was like a brital white plastic. I purchased a Bits Powered triple rad cover for the top of it. That is what the dragon is made from as well, to allow the blue light to pass thur.
              I cracked the corner of the top rad cover installing it, so now I'm making another from some aluminum I've found.

                So I got the dragon to light up a bit better. This is a 6" and a 12"cold cathodesetup, think I'll go with 2 - 12" cold cathodes to get it lit up right
