engine compartment delima

I'm still of the opinion that black is always acceptable for a driver. The more "show" you get with the car though, the more appropriate body color gets. Other than black, I've never seen an accent-colored engine bay that I've really liked. The one exception I can think of was a blue engine bay on a white Chevelle - but the block and heads had fresh blue paint, the wires and hoses were blue, etc.
