go on www.eastwood.com and look at the various paints they are selling, I've used the xtreme chassis black in satin finish it looks really good for underhood, they also sell "underhood black"

Good stuff

Still need to finish the wire mod. Been lazy

When ya going to loose that high $ hot air intake?

Get you a 85mm lid with free ram air and watch your car get faster! I have got 5 people to loose that setup and they all got faster in 1/4. Your setup is good for dynoing with hood up but once you close it gets all the heat from motor!
You get lid you can even pant it to match intake!
