What colour Rocker ???
Am going Gotech & fitting RS1600i Rocker cover & inlet manifold etc...............
Just can't decide whether to leave rocker unpainted (freshly shot blasted) matching the matt silver inlet, powder coat blue (ala T.Scarlet) or try something a bit differant....
Current Engine bay pic below, so what'd think peeps' ?????
Cheers

that engine bay looks stunning as it is mate, but i would go with a nice dark anthracite and then have the charge pipe and inlet the same colour.
i'll have to cme have a look at your car one day, it looks stunning in all the pics i see of it
