      I was going to do black on mine just to "frame" the motor with the inner fenders(black) and the black firewall, but after spending so much time and money on smoothing the firewall and cleaning it up, I went with body color to show it off as well.

      If you want a more modern look then my vote is body color..




      If you want a more OEM and classic look then there is nothing wrong with black, However if I was doing black it would be more of a satin black to make cleaning easier.

      It's just a thought, but many race cars use white or gray for frames/firewalls. It's easier to see welding cracks and helps with visibility when working on it.
