Engine Bay Pics

My engine bay isn't that pretty and I want to clean it up a little...get rid of useless crap like extra vacuum lines that were connected to the smogsystem, and tie up little wires, and you know.

So Can I see some engine bay pictures to give me an idea, or encouragement..LOL

Yellow72, How did yopu do all the little yellow drizzle stuff. That should be enough inspiration for anyone. Looks cool.

I just dipped a paint stick in some body color acrylic enamel and started "slinging and flicking" it on till I thought it looked right...I did the underside of the hood as well
