has anyone on here got a tucked/smoothed/simplified engine bay?

 

I have scoured the net and not found anything, I'm curious as to how it could look and what people have managed to relocate or hide to make the engine bay look cool and tidy

I do!  :-) It took a hell of a lot of work though. My signature under this post will take you to my project thread where I've got loads of pics, might have to do a bit of digging though lol

I sort of did on mine, there wasnt really anywhere else for the ecu or expansion tank to go, but wiper motor was hidden, did away with the inner wing braces and welded all the unused holes, theres more pics of the process on my thread *shameless plug*  :shy:

I've left the brake master and the wiper motor. Planning to get the DSN mount sometime for the wiper motor. Foam is fireproof.
