It really does look better without the sound tube. On the badges, not a fan as they feel out of place and it adds another color to the bay which is a little confusing to the eye.
Just a thought...but what about painting the new covers, the C&L tube, cover of the fuse box and the top of the radiator reservoir the same color as the valve cover pieces? Then maybe add flames from on the strut bar of the same color or like a paint being stripped off effect on it (like you're going so fast, the brushed aluminum is being stripped off and revealing a matching orange underneath it).
Of course, I have to add in the humor...then have them paint the devil on your hood underside and he's saying "Welcome to Heeelllll, B!t&&&"
