Whatever color you choose, pick it from the 500 deg. engine enamel aerosols. That way you can match the brake rotors, coil cover, and any other parts you want to paint.

Black

I think that would look sweet with the chrome accents. How much is the chroming going to cost?

I was quoted $300 for the intake manifold and $150 for the valve cover.

with black almost any color can go, red would look sporty as woud blue, yellow would be a great attention getter, as i say the more chrome the merrier, check out my sig for blue
