I sprayed my cover gloss black (including rings and V6 badge). Did my runners in gunmetal and valve covers red. Gunmetal or black IMO would look good on yours.

The actual valve covers themselves (metal). I did them when I changed the VC gaskets. I don't run with the plastic side covers - only the top one. I think there are pics in my album.

You should paint that intake tube white too, would definitely look good with the rest. I can't get over how nicely that dressed up the engine bay though, looks awesome. I think you should get funky with the intake runners. Paint 'em somethin random lol
