Pics of my engine bay (please comment) Hey everyone. Wish I had pics of my car when I first got it but here we go. I've done about every bolt-on and appearance mod that I can, not to mention a few bolt ins. I did all the powder coating myself in my garage. Let me know what you think. PC'd valve covers, TB, MAF, coil brackets, HL and hood brackets. What else can I improve on?

To be honest, I think the TB and MAF would look better in black on your car
i think it would look better if you came and powdercoated my stuff! lol, no just kidding, but seriously haha
no that looks awesome!
the only thing that i think i would have done differently would be like brian said and either go all black for the MAF and TB, or reverse the colors so the TB is red and MAF is black... but still looks tons better than mine lol

looks great. to be complete, i would paint the lid NBM, get some FRCs and paited them NBM w/ red accents, get black battery and fuse box covers, then paint the backsides of your headlights black. after that, replace all the caps with polished ones.

I think red msd coils would add to your engine bay, there isnt a overwhelming amount of red in it right now but it could use just a little more and it would be more semetrical<spell check... other then that looks good and clean to me.
If you're dead set on keeping the TB and MAF red, I'd paint the coil packs red as well and maybe some red MSD wires. With how glossy the red is now, it looks like there is not enough red under the hood to "balance it out".
