    Ok so from my avatar you can tell what color my car is, now my question is what color should I paint my engine compartment? I have the motor and tranny out and would like to do some painting but I can't think of a color that would look good with the color of my car?

    I was thinking black and then maybe having the supercharger and snout polished and the valve covers?

    Dpends on what look your going for. From a body work guy, I would go with a satin black. It has a nice factory look, but still stands out, especially under some polished parts. Not to say it's a bad thing, but a gloss black looks fake in so many words. That's just my thoughts on it. It's what look you going for yourself.
