Engine dress up

Well, I've done some searching on the forums and seen some trick engine dress up kits like Zilla's and led foot's.

I'm having a tough time trying to find pics of everything that is out there though. I still haven't even decided if I want to go with carbon fiber, painted, or chrome (my wheels are chrome and my paint is magnetic red). I'm thinking about starting with the windshield, radiator, and fuel rail covers.

So how about it, any Engine Dress Up recommendations and/or pictures of your setup?!

I think you need an even balance of color and chrome

I'm still equally confused as those all look fantastic!

I saw the black and colored carbon fiber pieces for sale here on the forum. Has anyone gone with that in their theme yet?

It is not only how you dress-up the engine, but also what engine you dress-up.

Kewl makes some very nice painted pieces at a reasonable price. They are great to deal with too.

Here's a good place to look for some very nice and very high quality engine dress up parts.
FYI: I've seen them at Carlisle the past two years also.
