any accent color going on yet?
raspberry pink or purple go best with your car, but you'll have to pull the color in other places for the whole car to work.

IMO all of those colors are obnoxious and don't really go well with grey as a foundation. Grey isn't actually a color, so the best matchups with it are white and black of course. Other "values", so to speak.
/art school I'd go lime green if I HAD TO. My opinion paints the valve cover chrome, and the future wheels a white or gunmetal grey. As it is your car, enjoy whatever you do to it though.  -SAV

I'm considering doing polished wheels & polished valve cover and then painting the other valve cover I have and deciding on the matching wheels

ok ok...so apparently in the last few days i've said a few things to make myself look like an idiot...
so again i'll explain my thinking of this thread lol...i thought he was talkin bout the plastic VVTi cover, not the actual valve cover... blue is always a good color, so is high gloss black. |

It happens severous01
I guess it really comes down to individual taste, but I really need to weed out the bad colors and the best colors. The polished look always looks good, so that's not an option. So far Raspberry, Purple, Blue, and Gold seem to be the best colors.
