Done by RianV8 who is on the Nissan Forum.
He more or less matches the tappet covers and plenum chamber colour to the vehicle's colour.
I have mounted the HL jack in the engine bay.

Looks nice from the top Malcolm

What fan are you using, and how does the exhaust setup work?

Two electric fans

Four into two, two into one near the gearbox. Nice and quiet.

Rian V8 het vir my die hele job gedoen, die 2 radiator fans is op die normale plek, daar is nie genoeg plek voor die radiators nie.

Oom Malcolm, did you know the intake can be turned around 180 degrees to have the intake point the other way and that way you don't need that very long intake pipe.

On my hilux the intake pointed towards the passenger side as you only get passenger side snorkels for those hiluxes. I looked now in my albums but I cannot find any pics of the engine to show you what it looked like.
