Under hood color
Ok I have an aluminum hood for my wagon. Now I would love to polish is up so it looks all pretty, but I am wondering if I do that would it simply reflect heat back to the engine? So would I be ok polishing it of should I paint it black?

In simplistic terms, being shiny isn't going to reflect heat, (or atleast not measurable amounts of heat).
So. Do what you like.

Go polished it will be work to keep it nice but it will look great...Always have the option of clear coating it
