Need to paint my xe engine bay on a budget, but do i go for oe colour? black? or something different ala sloth?

Grey metalic for ease, looks better than black and the touring cars etc are done like that, and now you have a 4dr saloon you need to be in keeping with the 4dr racers lol

Black, so when oil sprays out of the breather you cant see it lol

I agree. Gunmetal like the works touring cars use. What I'll be doing on my next shell.

See that smallblock track car Jonlem has a project thread for inspiration. Red mk1. :thumb:
