i dont think red would look that bad....with the red top and all. maybe even pop that strut bar out and put some red on it too?

I think a blue like your paint color would look sick. Maybe even black, then sand off the letters to make them brushed aluminum looking.

cuz it will bother the fuk out of me if i can polish a certain part of the valve cover like in between the letters and around where the plugs go. otherwise i would. heres the how to off of the nissan truck site i belong to. and this is what the guy said. " Around the letters is

pretty much impossible unless you have unlimited time"
