Need help on choosing a colour for the engine bay
 

I need some help, Im changing the colour of my engine bay but don't know to what, any help here guys, the car will be red, feel free to try photoshop aswell but this is what it stands at the minute

I'd keep it red. Anything else would look out of place with your fans and slam panel.

I suppose a good shade of gold could work?

I've always thought red and cream/ivory would go good together, then again may be a good idea in the head and terrible when done.. Just a thought though!

What would be your througts on doing it white?

TBH I don't think it needs changed.

It looks NICE the way it is.

If it's not broke, don't fix it lol.

A light gray would complement the block. Depends how far you go with it though

Tbh it's gorgeous right now, the only parts I'd do white personally is the cam covers and maybe fans.

Can I ask where you've relocated everything too ? And was it a ball ache ?

its carbed so that got rid of a lot of things, fuseboxes inside i imagine.
servo think he runs a different pedal box setup but maybe wrong!

I think it looks AMAZING as it is you need to bring a new colour to everything though if that makes sense or it won't look right. White or cream would work. But it'll look a lot like wassys. I would go either gloss black, stay red or gold but i can't imagine the gold maybe champagne?

As already said; it looks soo good just as it is but, I agree with Jage, in that, if you want a change, black would make the engine stand out more. Then change the black details like strut brace and covers to red or white and maybe red hoses.

Looks great would leave it the way it is

dont ruin what Beanie and Moo have done mate! ;)

What have beanie and Moo done? Yes they've built the engine (very well ill add!) but fisher has put it into his car, smoothed his bay, relocated wires etc and colour coded the engine bay.

I would do it white but would mean wassy had done the same so don't want to copy, also adding gold wassy has already done, I need a bright colour if not i will keep it red and gloss black, I was thinking anthracite grey or a metalic looking dark grey but even still would look too dark :(

Thanks for keeping me I'm mind m8 but it's your car nothing about copying ... What about chrome with candy red on top ?

On my phone so can only send a link of what I mean will look mint http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...d.php?t=289369

That would look pretty awsome but will be missions trying to chrome plate things like engine block :(

It's not chrome plate mate it's painted

Ohright hmmm same sort of spray technique then? Chrome base coat then Laquar?
