Jus for info, its ford ultimate green, only on the new RS focus.
Ben, had been bout for bout a yr now, jus wanted summit diff, but there's another one in Raunds similar to how mine was.
Was worried bout how itd look, but overall i dont think its too bad.
Overspray on exhaust will come off easily anyway.

depends on the original colour of the car if the inside of the engine bay is black as that was the original colour it would look cool

TBH i ent seen what the end job on the engine bay is yet....
I am worried because that could potentially kill the whole thing....
But sometime u jus take a risk m hope the bloke doing the jobs as good as he's supposed to be

are you serious have you not seen cars with a engine bay done a different colour they can look the businesst
there's a civic i saw somewhere thats white with gloss black roof and gloss black engine bay, looks awesome!
and can be pulled off if done right imo
oh and he might not have that im just saying its something that could have been done if the car was originally that colour and he had not sprayed the engine bay to match the rest of the car

Might work with vibrant colours, but black? In my opinion just no
Needs alot of work to make it even close to right, euro cars may make it work but a luminous green 206?
Cant work without some serious serious attention to detail, then still i will reserve my veiw
