Project, Clean up engine bay & make it look tidy, but to keep Performance in mind.
Hi all, i have got my power to around where i want it for now. i have got a set of gt spec headers to go onto the car in the new year, so now i want to clean up my engine bay to make it look more pleasing to the eye.
i will add pics as time goes by and i add more things.
any ideas on what i could do would be greatfull.
i like carbon, and not to much in your face. £££ does play a big part, so would profer if i could make it my self.
pictures so far

not bad really, the map tweek went fine i think. have got some new heat wrap tape to go around it, when i get 5 mins.
it was abit of a cut and try, when i was putting the pipe work together, but it worked out well in the end. it also have a more direct flow then how it is standard

Powder coating things like the alternator belt cover, header tank and map sensor bracket (pretty much anything that unbolts easily) in matt black helped tidy my engine bay a little. Requires the car to be off the road for a couple of days but is cheap.

dont get me wrong, Kenny was particularly **** about it, and I believe he was in a better position to have things fabricated and powder coated.
It was more about giving you some inspiration to your goal
