Few bits I fitted tonight. Still need loads painting, and some hoses. It's so, so dusty. I'll wash the bay down Wednesday.



It's more cluttered than I wanted now, but needs must.

haha. I wanted it to look like the picture above at Central Day, just an engine in a hole, but when the loom goes in (although its as hidden as possible), fuel lines, then ally bits etc it just starts to look like a regular bay again, just tidier.

Only way to do it is like some of the VAG lot and hide the expansion tank etc under the innet wings and even under the dash!!!

Does look impressive though

Ha, i know what you mean! but i think unless you go that far an engine bay will always look slightly cluttered.

Just pulled the cover off after a winter in the garage.

Will get a bit buffty over the next week or so ready for central day.



Just found this so thought i'd do an update.

This was my bay before the tidy up...
