Default Engine bay and hoses

So looking to make the engine bay a bit nicer. Thinking my next option is a hose kit. Though looking to see what colour's everyone else has so post your pictures or recommendations.

My Engine bay as it sits:






C&C welcome as always

My engine bay, couple of changes since. That K&N has been replaced by a perrin induction and the washer bottle has been changed to an ally one.

They're fuel lines, the fittings(red/blue) are circa £10 each. There's at least £80's worth, just in the first pic. The you need your fuel rails converted, aftermarket fuel pressure reg, etc, etc, etc.

Neil's probably got about £500 just in the fuel set up in the engine bay.

Couple of pics of mine
Might be a bit much blue on a blue car for some people but I like it
Was gonna sell the car but now decided to keep it
And just bought a hawk eye front end and gonna do the hawk eye conversion
With with engine and interior out to do a full respray in black
So will be proper stealth hawk eye with the blue engine bay when finished
