help decide

i need help deciding which route to take when i do my sc build.

current picture of my engine bay



but im taking the while loom out and doing black again.

i need some painting options though as far as supercharger,intake and valve cover being the main things. idk if i should keep the white/black theme or mix it up with another color such as red i even thought about lime green valve cover? im having a hard time picturing how it will turn out so if any1 has picture or suggestions go ahead.

Hey buddy.... Color wise if Ure looking for looks. Do high gloss or matte or like a neon color .. if i had a white car is do a blue. Either baby blue or a high gloss with metal flake.

here is what i chose for the tb and valve cover and the intake and sc will be polished.
stopped on the edge bc the coupler will be there anyway so you wont see the part not painted.
and its not perfect but the color turned out awesome

Id say keep everything how it is and paint the SC like a bronze/goldish color.
