This is how my engine bay sits now. Still has ALOT of stuff to go in there, but will hopefully give you some ideas...
 Currently working on getting the rest of the gear in their so should have some more completed pics soon  Bacially everything is porcelaine coated, not overly expensive and actually functional in keeping uderbonnet temperatures down.For instance the prices i paid... $150 for intake manifold $200 for extractors $100 for rocker cover ABout $60 per meter of 3 inch intake piping $50 for the blower compressor housing

ea2ba- that looks insane, so where did you put all the wires, i was thinking bout pulling the wires underneath the firewall sound deadening sheet and then make em so the go up need the wheel arch, and drill a hole in the engine bay so they can go to battery, is that what you've done. you must do a tutorial how to neaten up engine bays hahaha.
rmyers- i like the porcelaine coating looks great, and the paint in your engine bay is so shiney looks chrome almost,
