Heres the engine bay. Zex kit is removed.

Plans are to get the radiator extensions and cut them to fit on the GT500 front. Paint them to match the radiator cover. Get the painted caps to go over the strut bolts. Now, I want to powdercoat the valve covers. Do I keep them blue or do I go white with the blue flames or White with a blue Ford Racing logo?
Also thought about powercoating the intake pipe. It has the jet hot on it but a nice blue or white powercoat job would be nice. Not much of a designer here so I need some input to think about. I have the GO now I need the SHOW for this year.

Any input is appreciated.

throw some blue flames on the intake piping to make it look like the engine is sucking in the fire!!

I'm a 'theme' kind of guy, so do white covers. I'm not sure how tough it is to do other paint over powder, but I like the Ford racing idea. The flames will get lost under the wiring.
