I'm looking to rattle can my engine bay. The only problem is that my car is bright orange and red in the back. I can't afford to have the bay done by the guy that painted the car. He wants $500. I was thinking black, or just repainting it red to sorta match the rear. O well here's a picture of the car. It's a little orange due to the light.

 

I dont get it.... why dont you just paint it the same colour as the front of the car? It doesnt turn red until the back end. Im a little lost

 

I can't paint it that color because it's a custom color that I wouldn't be able to get in a paint can.

 

go black. makes your bay look cleaner anyway..

is your car a show car?

 

Yes it's a show car. I'm trying to get the stereo back together cause an *** hat broke in and stole it while it was getting some work done so it could pass inspection.

if its a show car... i dont know.

it depends. if you do it black and dont do it right.. it will look like crap and kill you at shows.. but if you do it right... and have a clean engine:


it can look ****.

 

Yep go black for it. Since it's show i guess gloss black. If you just don't care flat black.

 

That flat black is pure pimpness. I'm gonna go gloss black, and see how that turns out. Thanks for the help. I'll post up pics when I get the bay painted. I'm in the process of hiding every wire that I can and cleaning all of the dirt and grime and small animals (joking) out of it.

 

cant go wrong with black

 

I would do black as well. And BTW slam that thing please!

 

Its in the works. I'm doing an engine swap and that sucking up my money, but it will done. It'll be like 1.5 all around

 

^^^That'll look much better. Just a bit too high right now.....
