Default Powder Coat I/C pipes or not ?

Well since my bov is chromish, and my turbo, wastegate,manifold are all polished, i was thinking of powder coating the i/c pipes so everything isnt the same color. It just looks too plain.

My colors in my engine bay are red,black,chrome. So what color should I powder coat the pipes?.

loll true story...

the single question you need to ask YOURSELf since its YOUR car...

what color would you like them to be the most?

I think it would look somewhat silly if you had colored pipes that you could see through the bumper then a regular non colored intercooler.

jet-hot coat them so they won't soak up so much heat. along with your mani and DP then everything will be chromish and cooler

Im just going to get them done in black. Well thanks for the help. Sorry if it was in the wrong section. I thought it would be more of a tech question than an appearance question.
