What color wire loom on Silver Camaro?
I know i just posted another thread about the intake but im still unsure and havent seen anything done with a silver camaro in the engine bay yet. I am still unsure with what color to go with. Anyone seen any Silver engine bays with a dress up other than yellow?

IMHO, underhood wiring should be as INvisible as possible.

i was also just told that the after market loom does not have as high of a heat thresh hold as the factory. Anyone else hear of this?

This guy covered just about everything with braided stainless hose. It's not wire loom but it at least gives an idea of the visual effect it will have:

Black. Why highlight the huge jumble of wires on these cars?

I couldn't agree more. There are things you want to dress up to look nice, and then there are things you just don't want to stick out.

I would just leave them black, and just go with the standard stuff like getting colored plug wires. I have a silver Z, and I did blue plug wires, and I had my intake and strut tower brace powder coated, and then kept everything else just really clean, and my engine bay looks great. You don't have to have something that sticks out for people to appreciate how things look under the hood.

He asked for opinions. I gave him mine. I really don't care if you agree with me or not.

That's why I hate to even post on appearance.
