sorry, kinda' big, I have some carbon fiber pieces that cover the ecu and fuse box, I also have covers that go over the battery terminals but I don't like to drive with them on as a precaution. These aren't the best shots at all, at least it gives an idea anyway.

Aipex8 - how do the LED hold up with the heat from the engine? I thought about doing this before but was not sure if the clear coating on the LED strips would melt over time.

The ones on the underside of the hood (which you can't really see in the pics) are in front of the intake box/battery area when the hood is closed, so those are definitely okay. So far the the longer strip under the lip along the firewall are holding up fine. I doubt it would get hot enough to melt them, I was more worried about the adhesive failing from the heat.

I have to say, with the gold reflective material that you have on the firewall, a strip of LEDs there would look pretty cool! Maybe red?

My engine is just stock right now. I might replace some components and change them to white. I think i might do that. It will look different.

Anyway, cool lookin' engine bays.
