Valve Cover Color???

[Jnicho]

Thinking I should paint my valve covers this winter. The car is all black with silver/aluminum accents...no other colors anywhere. I'm thinking about doing the same type silver color. Black would match the car, but wouldn't look much different than the stock gray. I have toyed with red as I've thought about a few red accents under the hood and maybe red calipers. Thoughts???

imo i'd stay with silver or black. seems allot cleaner looking.

LOL! Don't want to see another engine bay done in red?

Don't mind red but your car doesn't have a speck of red on it. If used as an accent color SPARINGLY it would be cool...just don't get crazy with the red spaghetti crap lol.

I bought a pair of PI valve covers and did them in red. They turned out pretty sweet.

However, like Opal said, don't do red if you don't have any other red accents.
A nice light gray/silver would look really good in my opinion.

If it ain't black, it's chrome . . . or grabber blue in my case;
but you get the idea
