What color to paint my valve cover...!

been thinking of painting my valve a different color, since the red doesn't look good to me..! I'm thinking of either polishing my valve cover or gettting it painted blue to match my car..! What do you guys think? Pictures would also help..!(yes the intake is gone aswell)

With the color scheme in there already I'd say you have three options. Black, Blue or chrome/polished look.

Anything else will likely look tacky.

I agree, candy blue would match nicely. I recommend these guys, http://boneheadperformance.com/powder-coating/ have used them several times, always an awesome product.
