Besides cleaning up the heatwrap on the AC lines, why not jethot the downpipe so that you can get rid of the header wrap? Those two things will make your engine bay look a billion times cleaner.

I voted rice, but really just wanted to say dont do it

. If you want to add some more color get some Samco radiator hoses

adds color and works better.

Agreed. I would redo all the heat wraps and take some de-greaser to the engine. A hardcore cleaning session will be the biggest improvement you can make.
