Re: i want my engine bay to look like this! any ideas?

don't mistake the point. the reason i like it doesn't have anything to do with plastic or aluminum or whatever material you eye zooms in on. it's the appearance. the cleanliness. the simplicity. the rationale being that this chiseled, muscular form boldly hints at an extremely complex mechanical subsurface, yet isn't so presumptuously bragging as to show off all its bits. it's more of a deep growl than it is an all-out bark. just enough to show a few teeth. that's why i like it.
