Car styling tips brings you the very latest in car styling and cosmetic car modifications. With pictures of show cars to inspire you from all over the world.

Wheras in times gone bye the engine bay was a mass of metal grease and oil and actually looked like an engine, we now have the arrival of plastic engine covers. Most manufacturers now install them and they serve a two fold purpose.

Car tuning and styling

Firstly they keep things looking clean and tidy and secondly they help to cut out some of the engine noise by becomming a physical barrier between the occupants and the engine. This particular engine looks spotless  and the tailored strut brace (in red) snakes around the engine profile neatly. A dbilas forced induction system is neatly marked with the makers logo and creates a nice feature within the engine bay. A chrome turbo badge sits on the top of the plastic engine cover reminding all those looking at it that the engine has a lot of power for its relatively diminuative size.
