So I'm gonna do some work under the hood because I have some parts to put in and replace. I'm gonna be doing a Hondata intake gasket, replacing my tb gasket, red samco hoses, my new apexi intake, etc.
Anyways, I wanna change up the underhood colour scheme. I'm gonna be putting my OEM intake manifold cover back on and need to paint it (old paint is chipping off), need to paint my intake, because I hate chrome/silver, and need to paint my new VC (its "spoon" yellow right now).
So I want ideas of colour schemes to do under the hood. I'm thinking Black and gunmetal to match my wheels/the exterior of my car. I don't wanna do red because I find it looks too tacky.
I already have a black silicone intake pipe and I'm planning on getting a set of Skunk2 low profile valve cover kit in black too. My intake manifold I'm gonna paint in POR15 Semigloss black.
Thoughts?
Pics of my new intake (still in shipping right now)

plug cover is painted in Cosmic Grey Pearl, thinking of using that as the "gunmetal" colour
