Thank's for the comments on the outcome of my project! As mentioned before, I tried following the look of Adrian's(Bluelex) old set up!

The air filter is the original SRT intake filter that are now being given with the intake system! The intake was courtesy of member USMARINES!

Default Engine bay!

Thank's, Bernard! Believe it or not, other than the painted pieces and few occasional wipe downs,my engine area stay's pretty clean.This may be in part to me not driving it much in sandy or dirty areas. A large part of it is due to the previous owner taking good care of the car as well!

Oh man, I cannot wait til it comes time to dig into this engine. Anyone ever attempted to do the European style engine bay shave? I did it in my GTI and was ver pleased with the outcome of that project.
