I appreciate the amount of effort that you've put into the engine bay and assure you, it definately shows.

Of course there's no disputing good taste, but the red 'accent color' only really serves to draw my eye to the contrasts such as the blue hks couplers on the turbo inlet, and ic pipes, which I would not have probably noticed otherwise. The thing that sucks is that if you go with red on most stuff, it needs to be red all around since every small inconsistency will be exaggerated.

I'm really not trying to flame you at all here, but in my humble opinion, flex loom looks cheap when done in colors and is the type of thing I'd expect to see on j-body and neons. if I had to name brand it I'd call it domestic rice style. Another alternative for you might be to replace the vacuum lines that you covered with loom with actual silicon lines, that can be had in colors too.

Please if you do nothing else, take the loom off the hood prop, that's just gratuitous use of color. But, if you're just looking for more ways to add color, why not paint the letters on the valve cover gaurd red too so it looks embossed?
