How is its cluttered if we are not adding anything to it? If anything I have taken away more than most? Cowl, cabin filter, stock air box ect.

the cowl and cabin filter removed allows better ventilation and done like it for the sound also.

I don't run without a cowl when it rains and you have to keep up on engine bay cleaning...it gets a bit dirty.

I think it looks awesome Rob!...I am glad others finally showing some bling to their engine bays.. I did mine about 4 years ago when E9x were fairly new. Rob its a perfect accent to your engine bay and theme..
