    Post up valve color paint jobs!

    Whats up fellas. I am going to be painting my VC soon and would like to see some of what you guys have done in your engine bay. I am undecided on the color but I think I am going to go with candy royal purple. Let me see what you guys have done for inspiration!

    What do you think?? This is one off of k20a but I would change out the cover for the silver coil cover.

    Purty color, but doesnt go well with any other color exterior.

    I prefer BLACK for engine components.

    Feel free to look at a ton of colors in my gallery. www.racecoated.com/gallery

    btw - that purple one is powder coated, not painted. :)

    I can't see how just painting it would be an issue. I mean, I have seen people engine paint blocks, and the paint holds up.
    What about green? It would match my Drop motor mounts.


    I want people to look under the hood and be like:

    Damn ninja. Dats a nice engine bay. Lol I'm not worried about looking stock. When they see the sidewinder, that will be a giveaway.
