Why not search on the topic and check out the various threads starting with this one...

engine compartment detailing

Usually, everyone jumps in and posts their works of art while the original poster shows and describes what they are doing. That's mine above but I searched others before starting. You'll get a good feel for the extent you wish to achieve.

Define "dressed up." A clean stock underhood compartment looks fine.
Try Google > Images and see if you find something you like.

Hi mds,
I took a look at your thread again and got a bit of a giggle from the pompe d'eau box..... "assembled in the USA from parts manufactured in China USA"!
Is the compartment still pretty? I'd think so!

Alan
