Default Kinda cheesy, but whaddya think?

Hey All,

Got a few new pics.....

I got sick of looking at the rusty, dirty engine, and started cleaning it up. It was sorely neglected before I purchased it (used). I'm gonna go get some engine brite, and some over rust as I was told in a previous post. I have started changing all of the old black convoluted tubing for some new blue stuff.
It's not really a mod, but I'm looking for ways to make this tired 2003 look a little better.

I also pickedup some Mr. Gasket braided hose covers, but I havent put them on cause I can't figure out how to get the clamp cover to stay on. I guess they just go over the hose clamps, but they won't stay on by themselves. Here's the pics....

Should I keep going with the blue convolute?

Any other suggestions on how I can make it look fresh?
