the first one is too...what's the word, it could be taken as a grimy job
the second color is to bright for me
The third color would be the one if i was to go with blue.

hope that helps

id say go with whatever matches your paint best.
most importantly, more than anything, its what YOU like. you of all people know that >>

of the pics you have up, I like the "shimmer candy blue."

But what about a chrome/silver look?? Like these:

I like the second option that airwoosh1 post.
But I imagine it would be a pain to keep clean.

i think they are the same, just the lighting >>, i like this the best too phat, polished head with blue accents would look nice. but if you are set on blue head i like the shimmer candy blue the best, dont think its too bright.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

I'm not positive, but I think the first one I posted was polished while the second one was chromed

I think I'm just going to polish my valve cover, and if anything paint it black or red. IMO blue just isnt an engine part color (plus it would look silly with my blue car). I think all my other heatshields etc are going to be a satin black soon, and my radiator silver.
