i guess its alright.. but why would you make such subtle improvement to an otherwise stock engine bay?? I mean i definately see the point in wire tucking, but i dont think it was worth the time in your case. Painting that valve cover should be priority number one right now!

I think your best mod was the crutch as the hood prop. *edit* that sounded assholish but I meant it as a joke

Sick hood prop.

Just needs little mods like painted VC and a new intake manifold.

mad props, never seen a single cam with a wire tuck, did you DIY? if so how long did it take? a local shop here charges $100, i'm actually considering it

No s**t..? Thats not a bad price at all, local shops here charge by the hour so it would cost like over $400.

Thanks for the looks everyone..

I started with the cruise control and removed that completely from the car since it no longer worked any way.. I pluged up the vaccum line so my idle didnt get f**ked up..

I guess ill make picture in paint with arrows pointing to where everthing is that i hid.

I didnt extend any wiring. Washer nozzle tubes are gone but i didnt use those ever anyway..

I love my hid's they are glare city but not to the point where other drivers hate me. I bought 10k. It has no blue in it at all. Its like a bright flourecent white with a small purple hue.. very very little purple

Im surprised at the light output.. It lights the ground pretty well wayy better than any halogen bulb, doesnt come close to a retro fit though

I dont think you should have a shop do it..

Its not hard at all its just time consuming and takes a bit of creativity. Once i post the picture with arrows you will see what I mean.

I wouldnt recomend having someone else do it cause it will suck if you are looking for a certain wire and have to sit there and find it cause its been tucked away beneath the shock tower. :lol:

There is still plenty of wires in there. I thought it'd be very clean, like only hoses and ground wire is only seen, but nah.

It's looks good though man.

there are still wires left.. however its gonna take extra effort to hide those and i am happy with my results now.

this took me about 5 hours.. I did it at a slow pace though and was watching a movie in my garage too
