I am about polishing parts. Thats what i would do!!! Not too much but just make it stand out. Maybe a strut bar, bfi with polish cover, and so on. I also like the idea of the different color of bolts. You can also change the vacuum lines to a color of your choice.

not to much to be honest im just starting on my long project build. just trying to find things out that im not 100% sure on. but i plan on doing a wire tuck, and hide as much as the vacuum lines as possible. i wanna do a abs/trac delet open up some more room under the hood when i have the engine and trans out plan on painting the engine bay and line-x the underneth and i would also like to run rock lights under the engine.

That would be a great start. Removing all the junk that ius pretty much useless, and weighs a ton in our engine bay. Another thing is the cruise control module and cable...Just a thought...

GL on your project... We need pictures of this beauty...

I saw those cf parts as well. They were asking $350 for the two cf spark plug covers and $100 for the cf fuse box cover. I was tempted to buy it but I ended up just saving my money for something else.
