If I were you I would paint the silver part of the engine color red like on the NISMO (Simota1 has a DIY) and it will look a lot better.

So, aside from the Fairlady Z lettering I think it looks good!
i dont see how a red engine cover when nothing else on the car is red won't be considered as "clashing"

I think the fairlady z looks really good and not busy at all. I would change the color of the engine cover or the engine cover itself, but definitely not red.
