It's up to you man, but I think it's kind of retarded.
Unless you're constantly going to meets/popping your hood it's pretty useless.

Looks good man. I don't really care for this kind of thing. My car's JB. What would I paint it? Red? Unless I was doing it myself, wouldn't pay someone to do this.

Lots of other ways to dress up the engine bay without being drastic with such a large piece to be color changed.
Polished pieces, strut brace ............ think performance aesthetics! ![]() |
