Wanting to clean up engine bay, suggestions?

Hey guys, this is my engine bay as it sits now but I would like to clean it up a little bit more. Just wondering if you guys had any ideas? I know that I need to do the !Wire mod and that's on the list but I'm open to any other suggestions. Thanks!

I would say put FRC on and it would really clean things up. Or you could get valve covers that have the coil pac's in them i know one of the sponsors has them. Also maybe braided fuel lines and aftermarket fuel rail. great looking engine by the way.

Get a coil relocation kit?
Move the battery to the rear of the car?

Just a couple of thoughts... looks pretty clean already IMO

im going out on a limb and guessing its not your daily driver since you have no ac, i would suggest relocating the battery to the rear of car and relocating the fuze boxes under the bumper that will clean your bay up completely especially if you did what everyone else has suggested, also move the grounds on the radiator support and the fender wells that will clean it up well also, im thinking if you did those to things and some black frc's to match your intake that would look pretty nice

I would take out your window washer reservoir [ unless you need it then do as follows ] and paint all your support brackets behind your bumper and the black FRCs will clean it up with the !WIRE and rerouting your grounds and fuse boxes as said before.

Great ideas guys! I like the sound of them. I've been working on cleaning the engine bay up but it's just not quite there yet, I needed a little something more.

And no, this is not my DD.
