Get one of the deals that hides your wiper area they look great and are easy to put on.Look in the aim and it will tell ya what color to paint the brake booster and Mas cyl. Flat black I think.Looks good keep it shining.

Just one guys opinion, but fresh black rubber hoses would look a 100% better than the cheesy covers....

lookin great!!! very clean

what made the biggest difference on mine was taking the carb off and moving most of the hoses out of the way and get a quart of brush on chevy orange paint and spend a weekend brushing paint on, it was tedious and to be honest it was a bitch, but it was WAY more than worth it!

but your engine bay is lookin nice
