Here's a pick of mine on the FW. I just repainted the racks and heatsinks, but still think it looks a little sloppy actually. When I was searching I thought I saw some coil hangers that hung them on racks below the covers, straight out above the headers. I remember wondering how it would look. Frankly, options are VERY limited and I personally believe its best to keep those wires as short as possible. I'll eventually find some ABEAR type covers and slap those on. Your will still look great even with the coils in stock location, just make sure u clean them up and paint the heat sinks.
