its not that clean yet, in the future i;d like to clean it up a bit more. might have to pull the motor out sometime to really get at the engine harness

any kinda cleaner that doesnt eat up rubber will work. i dont see the point in using degreaser to clean off dirt.

as with any type of cleaning simply spraying something with cleaner and then washing if off will never do ask good of jobs as actually scrubbing that area with the cleaner.

must be nice when you have almost nothing in the bay... I can hardly get to anything in mine. As for those like tucking wires and s**t, engine bays have wires and hoses for a reason, if you ask me its a waste of time. Can look nice but still a waste of time and can be a pain the as when trying to do heavy mods in the future...

hmm u must not know much about the wires that i tucked. i really only hid the harness that wraps around the front of the car, that controls the lights/horn/radiator fan and connects the ecu to the inside fuse box. the car still has wires and hoses for a reason, i just put them somewhere else and got rid of all the useless brackets that used to hold the wires in place. they;re they for a purpose originally, not to look good. they still are there, but instead they are somewhere more eye pleasing.

I like it a lot , any pictures of where you put the battery ?

Is it really difficult to move the battery ?
its in the back of the car. not really hard to move it, just if u do you will want to make sure its secure so it couldn;t fly up and hit u in a wreck. and u;ll need a battery box.

You took my comment a little to personal, it was meant as just a geneal post not directed at your car or anyone else.
