Default Paint the engine bay?

This is what the car used to look like before and after paint






1994 Z-28
Repainted in 2006
Marine Blue Metallic

Didnt have the time or money in '06 to paint the engine bay so i left it black


This is what the engine bay used to look like



This is what it looks like now after the engine mods





Well the Flat Black was too much so i had a good friend, same guy that painted the car in '06, come over and paint the engine bay










I'll post some pics of the motor back in the car in a few days. I should have painted the engine bay years ago when the car was painted. It was a huge difference.
