Re: What color plenum goes with polished cam covers
My plan is to do the red, maybe crinkle, on the cam covers and silver for the plenum with red lettering. Lots of choices out there!

Re: What color plenum goes with polished cam covers
I think the coolant pipe was a bit much. My recommendation would be to try polishing the coolant tubes, the top of plenum, and air horn.
OR, go gloss black w a polished top of plenum.

Re: What color plenum goes with polished cam covers
It just doesn't go with a tired engine bay that has 146K miles on it....too orangish...list goes on....driving it, not losing more time to taking it apart
and redoing it....

Re: What color plenum goes with polished cam covers
It does look a little pale. Was it a crinkle finish? Maybe another coat would change things?

Re: What color plenum goes with polished cam covers
I like it. Ferraris use red crinkle finish on alot of there engines. I like the look.
