Default rice or no rice, you're thoughts?

first i know this belongs in the S forum, but there are more people on here then there. plus i value all of your opinions very much...

Ok so i found an extra y-pipe on ebay for $15 shipped so i couldn't pass it up. i've had it forever and just now finally decided to do something with it. found an engine enamal color that i really liked so i went ahead and painted it. it turned out really good, paint is very smooth and shinny (pics don't do it justice). i liked it a lot so went ahead and painted a couple other parts, power steering cover and intake snorkel. i like how it looks but afraid it might come off a bit "ricey". what do you guys think?

i got the can right here and it doesn't say the color on it.

it's dupli-color engine enamel that i purchased from advanced auto. the top of the can is like a grey color, that looks a tiny bit metalic. the paint itself looks more metalic than the top of the can...
