If you're paying for it to be done I'd say there are much better things to spend it on, but if you're doing it yourself then fair play and it can look great, IMO.

I know right nittin, esp with a lot of more modern cars getting a bit tidier in the engine bay, the prelude looks like someone just went crazy at the engine bay with wires flying about everywhere, the green one might be a bit overboard for me but the white one is nice!

Yesterday I've had a starter motor issue in my Daily- Mazda 3. To diagnose the problem I've need to check starter motor it self and all wires connections from battery and key ignition to the starter motor it self. And first the g what came up to my head- "What would I do, If the same problem would cause my wire tucked Prelude". It would take hours and hours to find moved wires, check moved earth cables, + from relocated battery. .. doing that mod ypu need to remember, that any electric issue will be much difficult to diagnose than now.
