Default Painted block/Trans

Did a pretty extensive search and came up with nothing.. Building a single cam and when its all put together next week its time for paint. Either an OEM aluminum look, or black wrinkle. Anybody have any pictures of what it would look like?

Wrinkle black will just look like flat black paint until you get close. Just imagine your entire engine painted black. lol

thats exactly what im worried about.. lol. itd be cool because i havent seen anyone else with a built single cam do it, but i didnt build a single cam to do something different.. lol once the vht wrinkle settles it looks like this

i was hoping the white/wrinkle effect would break it up enough to be noticeable and make my valve cover thats going to be insanely stupid pop more..

i love the look of aluminum though, im leaning more toward that and sprayin my engine and trans mount wrinkle black to mix it up. i saw someone with a lime green block/trans on h-t and their car was like a dark purple.. ashame my cars teal because it looked amazing

Intake manifold is brand new but the rest of the motor was done with semour alumi coat. Can't tell a difference between the manifold and the distributor or vtec solenoid.
