Question Engine Bay Dress Up...

What have some of you done to dress up your engine bay? Im thinking stainless braided hoses/lines, colored vacuum lines, just some cleaning in general, colored split loom...What have you guys done?

Anyone know a good source for split loom (yellow preferably) that I can get it cheap at? You guys working at stereo shops, can you guys get it (*cough, cough* Mike)

Tuning Tip: Red is a good color for all around performance, however with a big turbo blue gets upwards of 10 hp, unless you have stock cams, then only 5 hp. Purple is best for bottom end power, mix with red for excellent mid-range. For NT cars, shift all recommendations one hue towards a warmer color. Yellow hose should only be used on high compression NTs or turbo cars with welded differentials. Proper Sticker Tuning can be a successful work around for any of these concerns. ;-P
