wire tuck?

you could also polish or match-powdercoat your timing cover. Both will require some downtime for your car but look great. Also, RareJDM sells some pretty cool engine dress-up parts.

Good luck!

I'd say start with a theme for your engine bay and work at it over time. Looks like you have a gold powder coated plenum, black intake and silver strut bar. If you're thinking of going with a polished plenum, start there and think about maybe a 350Z cover or one of Zack's wire harness covers. A lot of the "Bling" mods are more time than money so take your time and enjoy it as a hobby.

rookie how much you charge??? the engine is amazing.....

I am not sure how I want to go I got the plenum for a good deal and it matchs my wheels so thats why I have it but I still have my stock one and I have a buddy who does polishing so it's an option..

how hard is it to pull off the from engine/timing belt cover???
