Nice engine bay. Everyone is different but i bet you dont see many 75 ZT,s with dirty oily engines and engine bays.

I like the natural look personally, (factory finish) when it comes to engine bays.
Scrubbed up clean is OK with me too.
I think when reaching for the paint can, it spoils things under the bonnet dept.

Perhaps I'm being sexist when saying I've seen many pretty young women spoil their looks with too much make up applied to the old "boat race".
So for me, same go's for my engine bays.

Here is my ZT-T engine bay. I have spray painted the header tank, fitted stainless steel slam panel bolts, fitted a stainless steel fusebox cover and painted the othe bolts silver. In addition to giving everything a really good clean and polish.

Best stop cleaning mine then, as I have just removed the engine mount and bracket to polish it up as well
