Do what YOU want bro. It's your car...show off YOUR style.

I too am a fan of neatness...after seeing the wiring harness of my 96 spec as well I knew that removing that from the engine bay would make it look 10 times better...and I was right.

Fine...if it is a show car only.

Otherwise, a wire-tuck is silly stupid for a track/autox car. It makes tracing down problems harder plus it kills any resale value. Personally, and I speak for a lot of people--I'd absolutely never buy a car that had a wire-tuck done to it.

If OP is ok with all of that, then more power to him.

I agree with you. I personally wont purchase a car that has a wire tuck done as I wouldnt know exactly how they did the job.
The way I like to do it for the same reason of troubleshooting when racing is by only tucking wiring for the Headlights and other accessories. The actual engine wiring I will leave in the same spot in case I gotta check something out.

If it looked that much better it would have came stock from the factory with no wires showing. It's not supposed to look empty anyway, whats under the hood is for performance, who cares if it looks neat or whatever, hench why there is a big sheet of metal called a hood covering it, just keep it clean and OEM.

Sorry I should have said I'll only be tucking head light wires and some others, no main ones as what you say is very true and if there was ever a problem I would like to have easy access, but I do want the bay to look tidy as the look I'm into is stanced, low and clean, but still keep the original wheels for track use

Cheers t
