Rep Power: 299 get a strut bar in there to break it up a bit. I'm not a fan of painting the whole wire cover fuse box cover ect. but i do like it when the raised HONDA letters are painted silver. Polish the intake bonnet and if you are going to use the blue hose coverings don' t go crazy with it.

Rep Power: 0 Blue Hose Techniques and or Blue Loom will bring more color to the engine bay. You can try and paint the simple things. Also replacing hoses with those steel braded ones.

Rep Power: 400 I would powdercoat whatever you call that thing over the throttle body blue, same goes for the valvetrain cover. Get an alumium wire cover and polish the **** out of it. Get those blue hose thingies.
Or what would be cool is to make a set of covers to conceal the battery/fusebox and the reservoirs on the other side. Essentially leave the engine as the only thing still visible. Then do all the stuff I suggested above.
