I kept it very simple. The only change I made under the hood was adding a dash of yellow to the engine cover.

Would like to see what people have done after removing GM's goofy tupperware lids... esp since the design of the lids have absolutely no relation to the actual hardware underneath. (example: the fake 'runners' on the plenum cover look nothing like the real manifold underneath... just some 'falsies'... LOL)
