Default My engine bay..... opinions??

Here is the engine bay of my 06 GTO. Many billet accessories including catch can, caps, strut covers etc. Finally got it all put together... What do you all think??

Go to ls2gto.com. The guys user name is Jamesbiz. He does all kinds of billet accessories for the GTO. Some may be interchangeable. Or, you may be able to get ahold of him through www.billetprototypes.com. Thats his website. Im not sure if its up and running yet though.

If you know, or if youve done it, could you let me know what you used?? I have the Mothers Billet polish and it does great on everything else. I tried it on those lines, but they didnt polish. Thanks!
