I spent all day yesterday waiting for a break in the rain to do a bit on the liner, I had great plans to take off my cam covers and change the colour...

...I still havent done it cuz today has been so hot in the workshop I still couldnt get on with it.

Any ideas on the next colour? Its currently Ford Imperial blue, lovely colour but doesnt go.

If you not going to change the hoses I would have to say it should be either blue (matching the hoses) or silver or black, Any other colour would clash I would think??

No, and thanks for pointing out the obvious flaw with my worrying. However, I like to think people will see that ive made a small amount of effort on the presentation side.

No it doesnt make it any faster, it doesnt make it any cheaper to insure either, nor does it help with fuel economy.

Im going to paint them ORANGE

:-D :-D :-D

It'll make the car slightly slower as the extra paint will add weight. :grin:

Hmm, maybe I should strip them back to bare ally and polish them?

Would that make it faster???? ha ha
