polished will complement the IM and other black pieces very well IMO. Looks great though!

DEFINITELY black. i think polished would look out of place, and plus red and black is the best color combo

What about satin silver. Get the pipes glass bead blasted so its ultra smooth. No paint or polish needed. It will accent the flat black intake manifold and go along with your valve cover.

If a noob asked this question, everyone would be flaming him. No offense to the OP I swear, I'm just stating the truth lol.

Personally I think you should go with polished.

no offense taken, but this is the appearance forum. Now i would have been wrong to do it inside the tech forums. piping is piping but that can make the last touch to make my set up look nice.

I think polished would set off the IM and all the blue/red fittings.

i just finished my catch can lines, now that those are done. It's gotta be polished. The linies are black with red/blue fittings. Those lines will stand out really good with polished piping. If i did black there would not be enough contrast in the setup. thanks for the help everyone. I will take a picture of the lines and post them and you will see what im saying. Too much black will camouflage the other accent pieces that are black
