Dohc is going to always look more impressive then the 8v I will be painting.

Was thinking silver as it gives a new metal look about it, that blue looks nice and fresh also.

Your a smart man Robin ! I was going to do black but now you have said that seems like a foolish idea

I cant even do 2 different colours on my cam cover bloody 8v.

Very very smart corsa Luke quite a massive difference to my L reg, and JayCarr's engine looks nice enough to eat..Is the head painted on has it been massively cleaned

White looks quality, doesn't it get dirty quickly though?
