I can see well enough, Ryan.
Trouble with photo's, as you'll appreciate, they can at times be misleading.
My car, in some photo's, looks like it's all the same colour. When in actuality it's probably a different shade of 406 silver on every panel.

Sorry mate it does look a bit messy but 10 out of 10 for trying, regarding the alternator tensioner this is how i did mine by reusing an old timing belt bearing as an additional pulley, and just a simple m8 bolt to tension the belt, this has been on the car for over 3 years and works perfect and way cheaper than any kit availably
As said i think the comments that may come across as negative are just pointing out how to do the job propperly.
And as for doing things on a budget thats just what i do and its the attention to detail that count not just bolting on expensive parts.
keep at it you will get there in the end

STI9- you haven't got a pic of the way you have your towing thing attached at the front have you?
I used one of Matty's reverse manifold brackets- work well, but seeing that engine bay, not posting a pic of mine!
