If you look in the configuration tool, and move to a top-down position, several of the engine parts are bright red, no matter what color the car. Now THAT would be cool, but the text pages say nothing of that color.

The lights appear to be clear. Are they on only when the the hatch cover is raised? Look like standard issue underhood lighting if so. Sync'd with the headlights? On demand with a dedicated switch? Great jpg thanks.

Engine appearance package not a great deal
So I finally saw a serious video on this package and here’s the skinny. The lights in the appearance package are at the top interior of the engine lid/trunk. There are two of them and they are white only and are set to come on when the trunk is opened. As they are set way up near the hinge, they will not light the trunk itself but only cast white light down on the engine. As for the carbon fiber, those are basically two plates with louvers that cover the metal struts/braces and some of the engine piping and wiring on each side of the engine. While they definitely add that carbon-fiber look, I have some concerns that they will reduce airflow to the engine compartment, even with the louvering. Personally, it’s a tough call on whether this is worth it. If you are the guy or gal who has to have ALL the cosmetics, then it’s probably worth the extra $995. But given the vanity type lighting and that these appear to be bolt over additions I agree with those who believe there will be some better aftermarket options for this.
