Ah i see, you should have out your MAP sensor behind the washer bottle, thats where mine is.

You can also HIDE the bonnet cable, its a simple job and wont damage the painting you have done either, drop me a PM if you want more detail.

Someone on here with a turbo E-series had a really nice aluminium one, that sat in the corner near the master cylinder. Need to find out if it was off the shelf, much nicer than the plastic one. I painted an EA one for my car, but only looked good for a few months.

Bay looks nice though. I've got as much of the vacuum hoses as possible mounted under the plenum. Probably struggle to ever get it really looking neat, so much crap!

Someone like BPT sell overflow bottles made in aluminium. They cost about $250 and mount to the factory holes - off the top of my head; one mount is on the battery holder surround that you've removed :P
