I'm cleaning up my engine bay today. I'm thinking of taking off the vaccuum diagram on the cover for the coil. I think it would look better if it was all black. I've used a vacuum diagram once, and found it online, not the one on the car.

What would you do ?

My cover is all black, no stickers. But the cool thing would be to clean up the wires and put no cover Which is what I will be doing tonight

Haha, personally, I say leave it. If you're going to get rid of it, at least keep it or take a picture. The diagrams are specific to each car, no? Small variances here and there anyway.
