well ive got blue powder coating in the engine bay as of now, but im debaiting on wether or not to strip it and plate the engine accessories copper and adding a powder clear coat on top. im torn between blue/silver on the outside with blue engine acc, and black/copper with copper engine acc. let me know what you guys think.

heres the engine bay as of now



and heres a rough idea of what the parts would look like copper- keep in mind this is just a rough polish, i can get them down to a mirror shine

thanks, thats what im kind of leanin toward- main reason being theyre already finished. i figure stripping them/plating them/and polishing would require about 60hrs or labor- majority polishing

Blue is Ford IMO, I'd go with that snappy copper idea, it reminds me of the engine rooms in the cutters (ships) I work on. Or go with Cummins red. The powders coat does looks good though, I wouldnt mess with something that isnt broke, but its all up to your opinion.
