I've been thinking about this for awhile and I may tackle it this year. But just wanted to see some really clean engine bays. So post up any nice pics you have...

Not bad, but they removed the sound deadening, heater, a/c, wipers, cruise, fluid reservoirs, and power steering in most cases. It may look nice for a show, but I certainly wouldn't want to drive them.
Is this how far you're wanting to go with it?

Probably not as extreme, considering I actually ENJOY driving my car. laugh.gif But I definitely want to clean up the engine bay as much as possible without sacrificing driveablity

well none of those cars have power steering or ac or heat either so they just move everything else that is absolutely necessary behind the dash board like engine sensor wiring and any other fluid resevoirs. and they run all hoses and front end wiring like horn and headlights through the wheel wells and the gaps in the fenders.

sounds extensive. i feel like new wire loom and zip ties would be a million times easier to get a slightly cleaner look haha, those do look nice though

^^^ thats with out a doubt. these hondas take days doing all the work i described. it a whole lot easier to get rid of the stock looms and just get one big one and run all the wires from the bottom of the engine bay so the top looks super clean. you would be able to see the harness at the bottom and would have wire running up to where they need to go. only thing is that you would still have to extend a lot of wires.
