Pics of your engine bay

Post by Gullzter »

Im going to be getting my new engine put in soon and really stuck for colours. Have had a look through some members profiles for ideas and there doesnt seem to be a pic only section here so i would appreciate if you could post pics of your engine bay so i can get more ideas rather than going through hundreds of pages of profiles.

I originally wanted a Glossy bay with deep cherry red, deep/dark gold and black but now im not so sure, thanks to JD for helping me draw up some pics already to get a rough idea but im starting to maybe go off that idea hence why i want to see your bays.

Pics please :mrgreen:

This has to be one of the best engine bays I've ever seen on a 2.

Sprayed the cam cover in Nissan bayside blue a couple of weeks ago, and fitted it today, along with freshly repainted bits to tart it up :thumleft:

Got a few more bits to do, and I'm determined to redirect a few more water hoses in a bid to create a more 'tucked' look

A few years ago, I did this to mine:

It was (and still is) lit when the engine lid is opened:

Unfortunately I've had both charge cooler and turbo changes now, so it doesn't look like that anymore :oops:
