Dress you Engine Bay for CHEAP!
Hey guys..
just so you know.. im going to be making a "how to" on cheap dress up for the engine bay..
probably under $50 total, and will completely change the apearance.. maybe $100.. but i got some really good ideas..
including:
-Taking off valve covers, fine sanding, and polshing them..
-Wire loom, (either chrome, or colored)
-oil breather filter
- and more....

ORIGINAL: lrgnation
I would do expandable sleeving instead of wire loom. More time involved but well worth the outcome. I'll shoot some pics tommorow morning of what I am talking about.

are you talking about the SS braided sleeves?..
already done that.. might do more, i dunno, but i need some stuff to take place of all that black ugly wire loom.. if replaced ALLL te black with chrome wire loom, that would be awesome.. but take a longggg time.. and some money!

RE: Dress you Engine Bay for CHEAP!
Has anyone painted the stock airbox, fuse cover, etc with shiny black paint? I've had that idea recently but I don't know if it is a mod to even bother with.
