Hey, I'm working on the same project. I think I'm going to get it all done when I pull my engine, that will make everything real easy to get to.

But, I really just wanted to post and say I think the Vinyl looks really good on your car. I'm not usually a fan, but that looks really really well done. Two Thumbs up to your car!

That colored stuff looks gaudy IMO. What you are doing is calling attention to wires. What's cool about that? Use black tubing and do something like paint/powdercoat/polishing to make the motor stand out, not the wiring.

There's no need to be insulting people because you disagree with them. That sort of thing doesn't fly here. I happen to agree with him. He has a good point.

Also, the yellow in his supension is the color that Bilstein shocks come in, and not the color he painted it.

Yea everyone has their opinions and therefore don't strike him down just because he responded in the same way the other guy did. Everyone has their opinions and I respect that. I personally like the wire loom though and I'm going to do it. Someone said something about drawing attention to the wires over the engine. Well if you saw my car the whole color scheme is white and black. If you saw my engine bay you would realize that all my parts in the engine bay are black. Therefore to make it look nice and keep with the same colors I cover the wires with white. She my headers are coated black, my slp CAI is black, the throttle body and alternator were power coated black. It's all black and by covering the wires white it will look really nice. At least IMHO. Plus it's my car.
