All you guys with engine bits that have been colored, mind putting up a picture? I want to see what people color. I usually see, the fan, the fan shroud, the head covers...anything else?

Thanks in advance!

In a red C4 Cabrio!

I went with silver / black, all powder coat.

I did the fan, fan strap, upper pulley and nut, and fuel rails in silver (actually called chrome, but looks like polished aluminum.)

Fan housing, tin, and chain housings in gloss black.

Upper valve covers and chain covers, in wrinkle black.

Last year I pulled the intake to clean everything, and ended up paining it a med grey metallic.

Wsybert, are those lower valve covers original??

Those look like the billet aluminum covers. Available from Hargett precision, or Imagine Auto. I got a set for the lowers, and want a set for the upper now.

They are Hargett's. Got them at http://hargettprecision.com. No affiliation.

These look very tempting. Is there a need for the uppers?? Since the lowers are the ones that have the common leak problems.

Thanks mate for the info. Saw the other posting on your engine rebuild. Dam nice man. Makes me drool.

Hey Bill . . . how did you prep the plastic manifolds so that the red paint won't chip off?
