best color to paint engine bay with rosewood maxima?
what do u guys think is the best color to go for in the engine bay with a rosewood/purple maxima?

i was thinking like a rosewood/red color but too much matching might be too tacky. What you guys suggest?

are you painting the engine? or the bay? I would just polish the engine up and leave the bay around the engine the same color as the car.

Don't pay money to make it look worse. Leave it stock.

I assume you're painting your valve cover and or intake manifold and not the whole engine bay, right?

In that case I say black. Its going to be way to hard to find a descent match for your color.

yea i'm not painting the actual engine, i mean all the small stuff, the covers for fluid holders, valve cover, intake, etc. Seems like black is winning...or stock, but i dont want to keep it stock...hmm, thanks for all input guys
