So, in light of the little poll we all shared in, I decided to go with pink. Flourscent, "Saftey" pink. Enamel base, the pink, then ceramic clear. We shall see if it holds. Also reinstalled the turbo heat shield, but painted gloss black. Also, mounted, but not plumbed, the MBC. I think it all turned out nice.

Now to fix the leak, and drive it somewhere...

I actually can hardly tell that it isn't red, esp in the distance pics. Looks good to me!

But I am stealthy ninja. I rarely use AIM anymore, LOL. Yeah, I am a little disappointed in the pics. I need to have better light (REALLY overcast today) and retake them. Possibly with the hood off. In real life, it is pretty pink.

pictures really can't capture how pink that paint really is. I've tried but it was no use with the camera i was using. They seemed like they turned out rather nicely though. perhaps the intercooler piping is next?
