Talking Engine Detailing

I have been working on my engine a bit the past few days. So far i have painted my wire cover, fuse box, and tie down. what else is there to do to the engine to add a "show" look? i have seen people with those red wire covers, those look pretty good. i dont know exactly what they are called thoug, and cant find them on ebay. can someone please gimme a link to some fairly cheap ones on ebay. does anyone have any other suggestions on what to do to dress up the engine? all help is welcome. thanks.

I think its like 4 or 5 bucks a roll, to install simply put them over the existing hoses.
I bought the aluminum spark plug covers from allman.
