Doesn't look that bad to me. Kind of dirty though. My 8 is pretty clean, but not perfect. It looks used, but clean.
Guess I am used to the filthy engine bay of my 1998 Ford Escort which gets doused in rust proofing chemicals once a year. It's pretty necessary up here in Ottawa. It paid off though... almost no rust on a 12 year old car. My 8 won't go through this though as it is for summers only. Phew.

^^^Hahhaa, seriously ....I got a $20 autozone card so I guess i can pick some cleaning products up! BTW...I am thinking of painting my intake either Brillian Black...Or Winning Blue... What do you guys think? Polished (I do like it a lot) but sometimes looks too Racey....And after going to the SPOCOM show this weekend. I seen that not a lot of people do Polished anymore they do carbon fiber, or matching paint.....For Example...Look at this 2JZ...

Ive never like polished because after a month or so it gets foggy and scrathes easily. Yeah sure you can polish it all the time but after a while it will even stain....
