hey guys, i am all but done sexy'ing up my engine bay, and dont want to put the ugly coolant overflow tank back in, id love to get a polished aluminum one, or something really good looking, that wont destroy the look of my cleaned up bay. Can you guys post some pics of what you have done?

Thanks!

Thats good looking, however i have a big ic pipe, and a big turbo in the way of the stock location. i was thinking more along the lines of an aftermarket tank.
 
Rubbermaid 1 Quart container from Walmart, $1.79, brass elbow from home depot, $1.xx, and some black RTV :hellyeah:

My concern at the moment is do i need to have 2 hoses coming from it? My stocker has 1 going in it from the thermostat housing, and one coming out the lid down the side for like a breather or something. Will capping off that other side or building this overflow without it... would that do anything to effect it?

However... by doing something like this i can be all like "the only nos i will ever have in my car" and you people will actually get it. Or when i pop the hood ricerbois will be all like dude she has nos, that's so bad**s!"

If i would have put a NOS bottle under the hood some where i'm sure i could have sold my N/A for atleast 500 more than what I actually sold it for

Wouldnt you want to bottle to be standing so there is less of a chance that the oil will get back into the intake?

But i was got to start this same thing as soon as i got home!!
