Hi Mate..The plenum and rockers look cool..Is that the crackle paint?...If you are changing any hoses then i think either red..blue or mauve..Blue and Mauve go well with the black..Red and blue also..Or if you are keeping them black adding some little touches always looks nice..Maybe red plug leads and a chrome fire trap or red filter..Anodised red plenum bolts would look cool..New clips are a must..stainless is an added bonus..If you were to also clean up the alloy you can get to just with some autosol it can look effective, Of course only really do it if it needs it and when its time to change hoses etc..Otherwise its only bling..Instead of "Bling Bling"...phone.."Hello..Bling's of blingage"... smile..Cheers...Ziga

Ey up Zig.. Cheers mate, yeah I'm quite peased with it,
It is crinkle but its not really that crinkly to be honest, still peased though.
Yeah I'm gonna hightlight with some red hoses and some steel braided.
A red induction pipe I think. And then just replace clips and polish what I can,
I was thinking all sorts of colours for rockers and Plenum, but really line the understated look if the black.

Steel overbraided hoses look nice but i would only use them for air or overflows as fuel and water leaks are harder to spot with them and so linger longer..And if leaks linger longer then the longer the linger the leakier the lingering becomes..So beware of long lingering leakers..Try saying that after a few pints..laugh
The black does look nice...Cheers...Ziga
