Paint it see through


Well since you seem to have a blue led theme going on in the inside I say a blue or maybe gunmetal
 
I used engine paint, came out great and hasn't degraded... Just clean the thing real well prior. Some have used primer but don't think it's needed.

S/C & Valve covers same color, fuel rail and wires the same... Or any one of a thousand combos... Do what color you like, it's your baby, ll.
 


this is mine. gunmetal blower black fuel rails. and the opposite on the valve covers

Used brake cleaner to clean everything after an overnight bath in simple green and thorough brushing... Wasn't real dirty but wanted everything that could keep the paint from sticking to be off. Also, the high heat engine paint I used goes on very thin, water like. It's best to do multiple coats than to try and get to heavy a cover and wind up with drip!




All ported, cleaned and painted...

 


WOW, So pretty. I already have my mind made up. Im gonna HydroDip mine in Silver Carbon Fiber along with the Valve covers since you cant find the damn cf ones anymore.
 
Or have them chromed. That way when a hot girl gets a good look in your engine at a show, you could look at the reflection to see if she's wearing bra or not. ;)
 
I was thinking of doing mine black, with the raised ridges on the case being a dark red, then doing the valve covers similar where they're black with the horizontal valleys being the same dark red.
