well i let myself loose on the engine bay all afternoon as it's the only part of the car that i haven't actually got mint yet, and now it's nearly as good a shine as the rest of the car :laughing: so any comments welcome as to what to do to get it proper bling as i would like to do a few show and shines next year so i will spend a few $£$£ on shiney bits !

i'm thinking engine cover airbrushed by gingapaint, chrome battery cover and some sort of chrome cover to conseal the air horns a wee bit ?

anything else you's can think of lemmi know and even if the photoshoppers wanna do me wee chops then that'd be class !

nice chrome strut brace would look well combined with the mentioned above

also some sort of nice forced air induction kit maybe ?

strut brace will be done, can't see me going down the induction kit route as to get a decent one is rediculous cash that i'd rather spend inside the engine if i had it to waste

as said,get anything metal chromed/polished with the strut brace,will look good,if you get a nice looking induction kit it would look good too, ie a nice shiny one,but looking very good now :grinning:

Cool, looking good. If you think 3 hours is bad try doing it to a 13 year old engine that has never been cleaned!

Looking mint Graham ...... don't think the airbrushing would suit the Megane TBH as its not an overly modded car ..... it looks a little out of place when you don't have a bodykit or loads of other graphics to back it up. Your is clean and tidy and looks better that way - I think some chrome detailing round the engine would suffice. Blue hoses would be nice but they've been done before ...... what about these new silvery/braided ones?
