Well, it's obvious I don't know how to make a poll. It won't let me edit it either like a regular post....

 

Scew the poll. I don't like colored tubing, but then again my engine bay loks like ****.

 

Do you consider black a color?

 

Personally, I don't like it either. I tried red tubing on my car and I hated the way it looked - I tore it off right after putting it on.

 

The factory black color is just that ... not altered or modified.

I'm talking about all that red .. blue .. yellow .. etc tubing you see some folks putting all over there engine compartment.

 

Hell No! Hide all the wires that you can, the colored loom looks like ***! It's scary to think anyone has to ask if this wil look good or not.

 

It looks really really cheap to put colored tubing on your car. It's the mod I hate the most.

 

Colored tubing scares me!!!

Think about it.. look at professional show car and you will see they take great pains to HIDE wiring.. so why would you want to do something that draws attention to the wiring. The only justification for colored tubing is if you match the background color (red tubing on red painted background).. but the reds hardley ever match.

Best thing is to hide as much as possible and use black most places..

But hey, what do I know

 

Just my opinion, but think about what Steve said.

Also, if you are not in the financial position to really do an appearance mod that will make all eyes turn toward your car, stay away from the nickle and dime mods that only clutter things up and tell everyone some kid has been to work on this car. And the more of these 'colorful' mods that are done, the end result usually just gets more gawdy.

But, hey, it's YOUR car. Do what you want.

 

I certainly don't like it.

I like it Ive always had comments on it and never a bad one (Im sure untill now ) If you have to have the wires and crap, might as well make it look good.

This is my old setup. No matter what loom I tried, It always melted over the headers

I vote no when it comes to colored convoluted tubing.

 

Let me just say NO!!!! Black is the only color wire loom I will ever have on my car.

 

No colors, ..., 'cept black, ...

 

I went through this "phase" not long after I bought my car (using red)... Thankfully, it didn't take long for me to realize my mistake and go back to stock.

 

3 years ago when I did my engine bay... i'd have voted yes... it looked good when it was all new.. but now it looks like *** and I'm going back to just black... (did mine in Red)

 

BIG no. Let the ricers have their colored tubing. We'll mod our engine bays the right way.

 

I'll be in the minority and vote yes. Just don't over do it though. I agree to hide as many wires as you can but like the harness where our injector wires are run looks good highlighted. A little color here and there is a good thing. I get alot of complitments on mine as well.

 

NO
less is more
