As stated in the "What did you do to your Zed" post, I'm at the stage where the engine is being pulled out in the coming weeks, The car has always been in line for a full respray in a Candy or Pearl Blue but as I've just gone mad buying all the engine gubbins and a few other surprises my funds are running low. I've decided to just paint the engine bay while its empty and I can then do a full respray on the body later on.

My question is.... What colour / style should I do the Engine Bay??? for example, should I paint it in a Gloss or Satin?? Black / Grey / Cream / Blue??

Any thoughts or suggestions are welcomed:blush:

Thanks..

Richie

i like bays same colour as the body

I did mine Satin Black....... makes chrome, polishing and colours stand out against it, easier to keep clean and easier to touch in if I scratch it........ It looks tidy.......

Just my personal preference though.....

The correct choice... every time.

 

Devalues a car if the egine bay doesnt match the rest of the shell.
