Painted my FRCs. tell me what you think I painted these over my Spring break. I filled in the CORVETTE lettering and painted them with factory matched paint, applied some CAMARO decals then sprayed a couple of coats of high-temp clear on them. tell me what you think. I'm afraid I overdid the RED.

I think everything looks good now.
I don't think I would add anymore red to the engine bay. I would next maybe paint your intake a darker color or some other things to offset the red.
When you pop your hood to show people, you don't want them to get lost in a sea of "red".
But right now, everything looks good

, wish I could get the motivation to make my engine bay look as nice. 
I was too lazy to paint some red so I just bought the red Z06 covers.

the CAMARO decals I got from www.bfranker.badz28.com/vinyl/vinyl.htm they are just inserts for the front fascia (behind the liscence plate. And the 5.7L are raised letters on the FRCs that I just took the extra time to paint and then carefully masked them after painting them.
