My car goes into paint on monday (same color, just shaving everything etc) Anyway i just got my valve cover done, and the rest of my engine bay looks like ***! It's clean and all but i have wires out the wazoo. I really want to do a wire tuck and what not but i have no idea where to start, put the wires, or anything. has anyone wrote anything up, or can anyone give me some tips. thanks a lot.

PS, my ac dosnt work, so i'd take that out, and i have my belt off the powersteering so i can take that off too. i think i could get it looking really clean but ive never done anything like this before so i dont want to screw anything up

here's my bay right now.


and a couple random ones because i was bored

i have no clue but its about to be milano red

thanks homie, just wanted it a lil cleaner

 

theres lots of stuff you can pull and relocate man

ditch all the power steering and ac related everything,
the windshield washer system,
move the horn into the bumper(thats where it comes stock on civics)
then just reroute some wiring so it goes under instead of over and u'll probly be happy

thanks, can you give me a few tips on which wires to put "under" like you said? this is where i get confused.

 

ahh, basically on mine i just did it the ghetto ez way,
any wires going to the front, like to the headlights n stuff..
it usually runs over the strut towers,
I justran it thru the wheel well.

search up some wire tuck threads, there are some diy how to's out there

 

Be sure to keep us posted. I can't wait to see the finished product with the new paint. Milano red.

 

the more i look at that, the more that bumper color appears to be bordeaux red
