    Looks good, but man...you need some more things painted blue to really pull it off well. Unless you want all your attention to go to your valve cover...you for sure got that from me, as that blue is so bright in the engine bay compared to everything else.

    Keep on going man, this is only the start.

    I think a that would help, but maybe also the fuse box cover and/or the coolant overflow tank, and you could probably find blue silicone sections to better match the intake pipe



    and it does look good, much better than mine

    Update:
    Painted my crash braces today. Also replaced the ugly black bolts on them.
