Default Engine dress up

I did a little paint job on my manifold cover , whatcha think?

I used a plastic base primer and high temp gloss blue. I was going back and forth between yellow or blue, decided on the blue.

If anyone else has done something like this please share pics.

That looks cool. Good paintjob, but what else on your truck is blue?

Not much, It is the same color as the locking clips on the electrical connections. There is a few more things I want to do, but I need to get her running 100% first.

I'm almost inspired to do some underhood work on my Blazer.
When I get it back from the Transmission shop.
