So, what do you think I couldn't do to make it look better?

 

Do you think I should paint the cam covers blue?

Current pic ?

Sorry, pic added

I think you need to get it running right first :biggrin:

 

But blue cam covers would set it off nicely :thumbup:

Running nice now. Needs the timing sorting out, possibly a new CAS and the boost controller isn't working. But NOZ recently worked his magic.

 

Was thinking, as the cam covers will be coming off again at some point, I might swap them for some blue ones

Are you talking about cam covers or cam belt covers i dont really see the point in painting cam covers even seen them polished you can hardly see them under the plenum .

Hi Bird....... How about a VH45 engine in there........lol

hes talking about cam belt covers ...

Sorry, I mean the belt covers. I do like it when the rocker covers are done as well mind - I think groover I'd his in yellow and they looked mint.

 

I guess I just wana know what would look better in general. Maybe a nicer fan shroud or the engine bay skins from zcentre

Get rid of all that crap in there for starters too cluttered.

where did you get those little covers that go over the stock tops? don't paint the cambelt cover blue it will be ott.

Stock tops??? You mean over the suspension holes?

Looks very nice mate but how about a nice set of carbon scuttle panels to tidy up the back of the engine bay.

I'm not all that keen on carbon fiber. Could do with replacing the passenger side tho and painting them up

Someone had them made up ages ago. Not ok sure what they're worth like

Thanks Dave, any ideas what else I can do?

Looks good enough to me. Maybe a chrome battery tie down bracket?

Hi Bird, I think it looks nice and clean and not OTT..... Not too much chrome..... Just subtle.....

How about a Nice strut brace???

I have a chrome or polished 'Z' one but the battery is too small (height) to use it

I don't know how many of them I like Russ.

 

What's do you lot think of the skinz that cover the sides and back of the engine bay?

I think they make it look much tidier.

 

 

 

at least thats my opinion,lol

Hi Lee, they're not my cup of tea really, I am not into hiding things....... I would re-route the wiring or just re wrap wiring and keep it clean and tidy.....

Nice bit of heat shrink, new clips and cable ties......

Years of fitting audio and alarms.....lol

I was taught to fit neatly and make it look standard as if it came out of the factory like it.......lol

That looks really bare that Dave. I quite like it with the side skinz better though
