Default Powdercoating??

Those of you that have powdercoated your intakes and valve covers. What color did you use? And did you have any discoloration problems? I want to go with a factory color, but I see you guys with bright silver and man it looks good. Could you guys post pics of your powdercoated engines and maybe a link were you ordered the powder or at least the name of the color.
