Hi h,
The engine compartment 'black-out', and wheel well 'black-out', was done with paint typically described as semi-flat black.
People report good results with a SEM semi-flat product, John Deere (yes!) Blitz-Black, and Krylon #1613 (industrial formula).
Good Luck!
Regards,
Alan

That's exactly what I did, and I think it was a big improvement...
