I was thinking of getting my engine covers painted but cant decide wat color. What do you think about red covers on my pearl white 350z?

Not bad...but my personal choice would be blue. You can see plenty of different ones here...

I agree it's ultimately your choice....but I think red would look awesome w/ PPW...:thumbsup:

Red looks Great on a PPW. just check out Clayton's Z for some inspiration

That does look good :clap: I'm going with silver on mine, but I think either red or blue would look the best on the PPW.

Good luck with your choice!

iv chosen to paint it red, i'm painting the covers in a moment.

It would be cool to see someone paint it the red that comes on certain SR20DET's and RB26DETT's.. Everyone always goes for this super shiny red that doesnt match anything. Use Nissan model colors, it looks cleaner!

Do they make high heat paint in the Nissan modell colors? Or don't you need high heat paint for just the cover?

I really like your engine cover, Kshep, do you do that yourself? When I get around to painting mine I want something similar to that, not just all one color like everyone else.

Thanks for the compliment...check the thread posted above...ZPRESENCE (Rob) painted my covers...along with many others. He posted up the process he uses in case you want to DIY.

Clayton's Z is awesome. I remember seeing it at Zcon 03....Very impressive. His red engine covers are fantastic.

I just did my engine covers in red. I will try and get some pics up this weekend.

Its **** close.. looks great man. This is the color I was thinking for reference:

 

[jetpilot718]

Someone should photoshop that color to the engine cover and plenum.. might have a similar look as above! Anyone up to the task?

MAtching white is cool too !!

I like the white engine cover, but not the brake/batt covers. Maybe when i get my spoiler and have it painted I will do the cover too.
