Why not...black on black under the hood is dull enough, let alone all the wires covered in dusty black loom. I swaped mine out with red and I think it looks alot better with my whole color sceme of course...No ricer here, if it's done right and you complete the project of loom it looks good, leave alittle out to where it's noticable you didn't loom it...you got a ricer.

I know this topic is old but how and where do you tuck the wires? Any issue with getting it to the PCM? Do you have to heat shield them if you tuck them?
