The 2005+ ignition system is COP---coil on plug. No spark plug wires. Open your hood and take a looksee.

Ok, I messed that one up. What I was thinking and what I said were two different things. Hows this. Are any of you guys running ss braided covers on any of your hoses? If so where did you get them? I dont want to buid them, I would rather buy them ready to go.

You will most likely be disappointed in the braided hose covers. The underhood tempatures will turn them dull pretty quickly. Your best option is going to be to purchase bulk hose and end caps/clamps from some place like Summitt or even ebay. You are going to have to pull the hoses off ( at least on one end ) to put the covers on. Why not just replace the hoses in the process?

I used that crap on my Yamaha Road Star a few years back. It was tha same amount of work compared to installing real stainless hoses and cables. Within 3 or 4 weeks it was oxidized so bad, I ripped it all off anyway.

If you want to clean up under the hood without looking completely rice, try this instead...

Donny I cant believe anyone with a bra and a antenna ornament (check out his profile pics) would make a smart *** statement like that. By the way I think the make a set of chrome nuts you can hang from your rear view mirror. What a goofball. HA HA HA

Thanks for the Kudo's but that's not mine. That is what MidWest Auto Gear has on their website.

I have a Shaker. If I still had the stock hood / Air Intake, the one above is the one I would use.

Check this one out. Not great, but I'm working on it...

You can hide all the wires, I forgot who did it, but it looked really clean. He said it took him a frighteningly long amount of time to do it though.

Well being in sales ive learned that you never know who you are talking too. ie..women,preacher, plus everybody is so sensitive today. Ive basically eliminated four letter words from my vocabulary. I really should have ignored his comment. He probally just wanted to see if he could get me to strike back, does that make him a "twat waffle"?
