[MissR34]

I like the before look lol, maybe its coz i dont like the piping u have for ur pod, but thats me

what about painting ur neo cover?

[cruzin33]

I would only use 3 colours to detail your engine bay. They would be black, chrome and colour that suits your car. The only prob is its hard to stop once you start

Id look at getting a cover for your battery and fuse box, braided lines with silver fittings or colour that suits your car, one piece pipe for your pod and tidy up the wiring(re tape)

Or you could go 2GUUP style

Go spend a few hundred dollars on braided lines. It'll transform the look of the engine bay.

Greddy plenum

New cooler piping

Painted rocker and timing belt cover

Braided lines

[Silver_GT]

as previously stated, Aftermarket plenum (dunno if Greddy do one for neo. I know plazmaman does) or put ur neo cover back on painted a simple but nice colour, neos look shocking withoutthe cover.

slap an rb26 in there

[Mr Cali]

cheapest option paint your covers and as previously stated use a 3 colour theme

[MissR34]

rocker covers have been painted, just a silver colour, nothing to flash, but it looks much better than what they did,

and the engine cover is still that black/silver/red.

and suggestions colour wise for the engine cover?

ive heard that if you braided line you have to do everything braided line......is this true? or could i just do like the main hoses and whatnot you will be able to see?

what about getting the silicon hoses for the radiator? what are your thoughts on that? id go blue, because the colour for the car is blue (hence why she has the blue bits on the intake piping)

also no point in spending over $1000 on a greddy plenum when my car is non turbo

ive painted my extractors too

Put the brace back on!

You can do whatever braided lines you want to, you don't have to do them all. If you want to neaten it up for relitively cheap. Get the catch can lines in braid.

I'm thinking bout spraying the NEO cover. Too many hoses and what not messing up the look of it otherwise

how about enclosing your pod (cover over top)?

arnt braided lines illegal in adelaide, like defectable?

im not too sure what colour to do the neo cover tho? i think if i do it blue it will be too much of an overkill with the blue silicon hoses on the intake pipe

not sure to be honest

[JSTA33]

depends what colour your car is.. me personally id do it the same as your car..

there are cars out there with chrome overkill or they overkill some colours, so having a few blue hoses wont do much.. but thats just me.

No.

Blue in a white car is not so bad, here is a recent photo of mine:

The oil catch can lines will be re-done in braided lines.
