I had the fan housing media blasted and powder coated for $130, engine tins were in the $250 range for blasting and coating, I cheaped out there and stripped them and went with engine paint. I did the tin between the engine and tranny in silver to brighten up the engine bay given my car is silver.
I thought about red tins, but I like the black better, just got a set a red plug wires today and will also go with red rain hats for a little splash of color. But for each their own, do what you like. |
