i just use the engine degreaser at the car wash and spray it off real real real good....thats all the car wash is good for is that pressure hose on your engine bay the next bet is a detailer to steam clean it for you but if you stay on it like once a month you will be good.

What about my wiring, etc...I have 2 ballasts in my car...I might just have to do it in a meticulous fashion..

This is the perfect opportunity for you to go to a vinyl shop and make a sticker saying "It Hangs to the Right"

Also, it looks much better without the dealership vinyl and leaving the 'Cobalt' where it was imo

It doesn't sound crazy to me, its an engine bay it gets dirty... I know some people keep their engine bay immaculate but there is no real reason to do it, I understand wiping it down but no more than that.
