Sounds like linish finish it is.
I'll be repairing those holes in the foot boxes for the ignition leads. I liked the idea too but the problem was clearance on the drivers side. My toe would snag the coil packs occasionally when working the clutch and I couldn't mount the coils any higher because of the steering column.
The coils are now mounted down on the chassis rails. It's pretty neat and tidy and you can't see the coils and leads unless you look for them.
Cheers
