my car and engine compartment is black, engine is aluminum, so i powder coated the hinges in a near chrome finish...looks kinda like jet coating.

On my 69 I did charcoal grey for the hinges and silver for the springs.. looked good.. Use two colors and they will have a little more visual interest. Black with charcoal grey springs would look good as well.

Thank you. I'm not going to use springs, because of using a fiberglass hood.

It easy to justify the $$$ for a set once you have seen them! Especially if your hood hinges need to be replaced.
