IMO, i think mismatched engine bays look gross, paint it to match the rest of the car.

white it might be a little overstated/loud but will certainlly show off the quality of work done under-hood

you fools are loco. paint it whatever color your car is dude. Isnt the point of a wire tuck to hide ****? If its black wouldn't it be a lot more hidden? And wouldn't painting the entire bay WHITE kind of defeat the purpose?
