Default Which Valve Cover Paint Color?

I decided my valve cover needs to be painted. What color should I go with? Wrinkle Red, Wrinkle Black, or stock silver? My engine is an F22B1.

I painted my old valve cover black with red letters, the car was black. I liked it, wasnt the best paint job but it was ok.



I believe there was a valve cover thread in the appearance forum, maybe take a look through that for more ideas and see what you like. Personally if I were to do it again, I would go with a solid color and then after I would sand the tops of the letters down to the metal sorta like how it looks stock.
