Plastic Covers????????? what are those plastic covers that go around the wires in the motor called i want to swap them from black to red but walmart didnt have them
Called looms or "Loomz" depending on brand. Might I suggest the "Chrome Loomz" that O'Reiley's carries? They have colored chromes too and it just looks better than that bright-*** red of plain looms. IMO, less is more with those colored looms. Have fun!
Might I suggest "No, don't do it."?
Making it stick out like a sore thumb isn't always the best route.
Hide it, don't highlight it.
I know, it's NOT an opinion thread, ...

They make both solid and split loom. Split is easier to work with as you can just spread it a bit and lay it in over your wiring, where the non-split type requires you thread the wires through it. That said, I agree with others that feel that loom is best used to hide messy wiring rather than accentuate it.

i know it makes it poke out but im making mine a show car and my theme is black and red and there isnt any red in the engine bay so i need something to make it look better
Maybe you should go with the Braided wire loom rather than the plastic...Looks better

How about just a simple red coil pack covers like the LS6's had , and red spark plug wires . The red conveluted tubing would look horrible...jus sayin .
