Engine dress up ideas


For my new target, I want to dress up my engine. What are some things that you have done? Any custom projects, bought parts, wire relocation, ect. Pics are a big plus.

Here are the things I really would love some pics on:
  1. Colored Radiator Hoses (pref. Red)
  2. Chrome of any type
  3. Aftermarket parts (radiator, fans, CAI, Battery, ect)
  4. Wire Organization
  5. Battery Relocation
  6. Show me your engines !!!

REPS to thoese who have good ideas/pics, and even MORE reps to the ones who can link to where they bought any parts used

i always believed the best way to dress up your engine compartment was to just make it spotless. I wouldnt add tooo much flashyness, it starts to look cheesy.

I completly agree, I just wanted something to make it stand out from the rest. I always **TRY** to keep my engine clean... however that can be a very daunting task to get into all the small areas where grime builds up.

Bullitt5576, Great find on the UPR Radiator cover... I have seen the one on AM but it was for GT only, I will Deff be ordering that. +reps

I'm not a big fan of lots of chrome underhood dressup...

but a nice clean engine bay makes a ton of difference...
could also paint valve covers and upper intake

radiator cover, coolant overfill tank. Upr has most of the stuff for underhood dress up.

Do some underhood dress up, but don't go overboard.
