Default Color combo...

Hey,

I will be tarting up my engine bay soon due to not having much money for other mods + insurance problems... now the cam cover is in need of a re-spray due to a lot of fading but wasn't sure which color to do it in...

I need suggestions for a good color combo to go with my Monte Carlo Blue paint... i will most likely be going with ray bronze alloys in the future so keep it in mind

Just re do it in like a candy apple red powdercoat. Thats what I did and looks great. It was between that and candy blue powdercoating.

Think it was like $75 or something. I did it through TRG Coating in NJ. Not a body shop, they specialize in powdercoating. I'll snap a picture in a few. Engine bay is dirty I think but I'll try to wipe down at least the valve cover to see it better.

Alright well snapped a couple quick pics. Comes out looking more standard "Red" than it really does. A little more burgundy and candy look in person. Can't see the candy flakes in the pics.
