I need some help deciding what color to powder coat basically everything under the hood. The intake elbow, TB, upper intake, blower, catch can, valve covers and maybe the alternator. I will do the intake later, don't feel like pulling it off right now plus you can't really see it. I've got a small car show to attend in two weeks and I gotta get busy. I'm gonna start sand blasting stuff tomorrow. I was thinking black then have all the hoses stainless but I'm not sure if everything black will look good. Then I thought about a deep dark blue, not sure, need some help and some pics of others powder coating under the hood would be nice. Look at my sig pic if that helps.

The car is white, I don't think red would look good on this car although that's my fav color.
What do you mean cramped? I have whole 1/2" left under the cowl.

I was gonna go with chrome but I've seen some pics of that stuff and it doesn't look very chrome, more of a dull polished aluminum look. I think I've decided on black, I believe the stainless hoses and lines will look good against the black. I'll post pics when I get it done.
