That looks good..... but on a N/A KA it'd be more FAIL than WIN I'm really leaning towards the wrinkle red.

Yeah, don't do polished....... the rest of the bay really needs to be perfect if you are going to pull off the polished theme.

I'm actually considering doing something besides the polished bay. I like to keep my whole car fresh and up to date.... changing things frequently. So I am thinking of doing a color on the valve cover, intercooler piping etc. How it sits now:

Toby, your car is sick, of course you know that. And I agree that the bay has to be show/baller status to pull off polished.

RED! Matching the color of the valve cover to the car is always a good choice. Dont think it ever looks bad.
