Looking for a neater style under the hood...

This i think is probably a big ricer mod to do, but i was looking to get hoses/wiring/cables/whatever in red that i could use to replace some of my parts under the hood to match my laser red exterior... but i have no idea what to look under or where to find the right things.. would it be cheaper to just have someone paint those cables? (worried about the safety of those cables heating though), or buy them?

if u know where or exactly what to look for, like some special kit that is made jus for this purpose, then please let me know... links would definitely help my searches!

tyia!

they're called grouding kits. and i'm sure they make them in red.
you can get samco hoses to replace some of the stock ones.
you could paint your engine cover too.

vividracing.com has a g35 set (although I think they're the same honestly)

also try intensepower.com, mynismo.com

the red grounding wires are from Stillen, I believe.

Did you pull your core support off yourself?

Also, just making sure, is that color matched or something very close? Looks damn sharp.

its becomming a PITA to find venair 4pc hoses for teh g35... anyone know a site with the item actually in stock?

i was lookin at grounding kits as well... stillens run about $160 for 8gauge, but intensepower.com has 4gauges IMR kits for only 60... grounding wires shouldnt matter as long as its got insulation right? i wouldnt think too big of a gauge would matter

*edit* ordered venairs from vendor... now debating between grounding kits from stillen, 350evo, or an ebayer that uses 4gauge instead of the 8gauge stillen and many others use

Different grounding kits in Red

Their are many kinds of ground kits to get. I always believe you get what you pay for. Stillen has a red grounding kit for 115.00 and Intense power has a kit for 59$. ( i included the pictures below.)
I also do know of a way to make all your hoes red. As soon as I find the link i will post it for you. Enjoy!!
