Default Any odd coloured cam cover pics?

The blue paint is wrong and also flaking on my 2wd cam cover. The car is flint grey and i have been thinking of doing it that colour. But i have also been thinking of doing it jewel violet as i have a hard on for jewel violet as a colour. If it goes that colour i will be changing all my water and boost hoses to black. But if i stay blue or even do it flint grey, my hoses will stay blue.

So any "different" coloured covers for me?? No bright or eccentric colours please!!

How long did it last already? So mallard green were possible, if the painting will last. But powder coating is the way cause of the thermal stress I guess.

I keep thinking of having mine chrome plated by not sure it may be to much chrome as the inlet manifold and the turbo are chrome, I love the chrome not many do nowadays
