A clean bay opposed to a shaved bay?

[DubSteve]

Well I am pondering about this question and the road I want to take with the mk3 in which I can't honestly figure out what I want to do with it

I'm thinking clean bay, which will involve...
Removing seam sealer
Cleaning up a few holes and plugs

OR

Completely gone spastic shaved bay



I'm kinda thinking the first with a newly painted bay without seam sealer and super clean engine will work nicely.

Any suggestions and please post up pics

When people do that, where does stuff like the airbox, washer fluid bottle, etc all go?

Full (but clean) bay ftw..

I honestly wouldn't know where to start clearing it up anyway.

the airbox i assume its replaced by a pod filter hidden sumtime in the guards..

most items are moved or hidden in panels welded up or in the boot

I wonder the same thing. Does it all get stashed in the boot?

shaved is nice. Although im not sure its overly practical if youre planning on using the car regularly

Something like this is what I am thinking:

Its clean with a fresh coat of paint but most of the wires are still all there.
