      then keep your hood closed so people like me wont talk shit. If i wanted to see spaghetti soup, Id buy some pasta and boil water

      • "failure?"

        show me a car that was designed without a hood and has a wild jumble of wires, and i'll happily never bring this back up. but since the hood on a car is a pretty important design feature, anything that it covers isn't important to me when concerning aesthetics. that's kind of like saying "the wiring under the carpet of your interior isn't the most visually appealing. therefore, your car is ugly, becuase when i took the carpet out, it was a wild jumble of wires."

        and dude, i do get what you're saying. if you care, you'll put the effort into making your engine bay tidy and not looking like a cluster-fuck. but if it's messy, it doesn't take away from the paint, fitment, and interior. things that people see most of the time.

          every car. all cars have wires properly loomed and tied together.

            AH! very important qualifier for this argument. if your shit looks like shit, cover it up! there was this kid at a local meet who took the hood off his stock neon, and didn't even clean the engine bay. i laughed my ass off, and he became a meme on this local board.

            if you've tucked the wires, relocated everything, and painted the bay, take that hood off and show all your hard work!

            but if it's not shiny, clean, and well-maintained, the hood is there for a damn good reason.

              not even tucked. im just saying, take more time doing your wiring. kids throw shit together and think theyre the best. but in reality, if they took an extra 2-3 hours to loom and run everything properly. it would look a billion times better

              • haha dammit, i agree.

                take pride in your work. i triple-checked every step while trying to rebuild this motorcycle, making sure everything not old worked, but was as clean as i could make it. the old fuel line was almost a foot too long, and stuck out. i made sure to cut it only just a bit longer than it needed. so now all the tubes are inside the frame.

                take pride in your work, and everyone will appreciate it. hell, you don't even need the three hours to make things look at least halfway decent haha.

                tl;dr - don't just lay your subwoofer cables all over the place. keep things looking stock and you're doing it right.

This site was founded on freedom of automotive self expression and the passion that goes in to each and every build... This site is about doing what you like, whatever makes you happy, and not caring about what other people think...
