Gives it a custom look...now you just need to paint the air filter cover white and that little plastic box on the right white and you'll really bling that thing up.

It does look good my friend. You will have to find excuses to lift the hood now to show it off to your friends. I have just realised that I spend a lot of time detailing inside and outside my car, but never do the engine bay. In fact I think I have only lifted the hood twice since I have had the car

Looks great! Make sure you keep in clean in there now! The best part is lifting that hood showing it off!

I actually have some experience painting engine covers, here's some of my work.
