Default Engine dress up help...

i plan on making my engine bay real nice. I plan on a new powder coated valve cover, plugs n wires, new colored vac lines, blue fuel rail, and a distibutor cap. What else is a major component people would see? ive kinda given up on trying to buyh performance parts so at the moment i want it too like nice and clean.

If you go on ebay they sell braided hoses that can expand ti different shapes. For about $20 with shipping you get enough to do an engine bay

go for the little details. Like cleaning and painting all those little bits that look like **** over time. Like radiatior brackets.

another thing to look into is getting stainless steel bolts. Similiar to the PW:JDM fender washer kit, but not as expensive.

This right hurrr:

Not a bad way to spend $20. its not much, but it does make a diffrence, and you dont have to spend $100 like the PW:JDM ones.

resivoir 'socks' are cool too, like Mugen, Spoon, or Skunk2 etc.

Dont forget about the heatsheild either. it can change the whole look of the engine bay.
