Looks like the two wiper studs are already sticking up through so maybe he's hoping to never have to touch the motor haha.

nice workmanship, but I don't get these sort of engine bays with concealed everything
what happens when something goes wrong ? Have dismantle half the car just to carry out a minor electrical repair
It's like shaved door handles.... useless.

Most half decent jobs make em in a way that you can get to bits and pieces by other means.

that one above is a good example
how do you get to the wiper motor and mechanism ?
You'd have to access it through a hole in the cabin, which would require ripping the dash out....
And wiring harness usually goes under the guards....going to be one hell of a job tracing faults

besides, I like the factory ribbing, dents etc - gives the engine bay a bit of character.
