[99 to Life]

I'v been pondering the same thing, I'm painting my engine bay again on another build, only I'm not doing black firewall and inner fenders again. Though that does look good. I was thinking white firewall and my paint color (metallic gold) on the inners and maybe the hood latch panel. But IMO, patina inside just clutters the eye, take away from a nice engine bay. I'm a huge fan of patina outside and nice interior and engine bay, and engine esp. I hate seeing junkyard greased engines dropped in a nice painted vehicle or patina even, you get where i'm getting at. its all about a nice balanced contrast.
