I very much disagree with what mitmak said as well...
When was it ever a waste of time and money to clean up your engine bay???
Just my opinion... But I'd rather not have dirt,grime, and grease all over my engine and it's components.
You can tell alot about a person by their car. Things can be precieved in different ways... But your also can explain what kind of person you are. You have alot of colors under the hood... Would that mean you are fruity? ... nahhh it doesn't. Maybe you are a person with a colorful mind... A Leader maybe, not a follower. Maybe a person that brings life to his surroundings, instead of being dull... then just black and white.
I like the route your going with this and love the pics. Keep em coming.
Note... If I see something someone else has done, I don't think it's a waste of time at all. What people do with their time, rather it being something wild and crazy or not. It's what makes that person. If you like putting big tall aluminum spoilers on your car... Then I won't hate on you for it. I just look at the good things about whatever was done. I'm in no way a negative person. If you stay positive, then you will always get positive feedback. got me?

Re: Cosmetic ZE Refinishing
Great! I think it'll look even better when the headers start blueing. It needs brighter wires!

Re: Cosmetic ZE Refinishing
great job, the chromed bolts are a touch of class! Did you just spray them or actually find a plated set?

Dude.. I never use the word "dude", but, dude, that looks great! I've got my fingers croeesd that you'll polish the aluminum. It's hard to type like this.
