I want to Change the colour of my standard engine bay. I have an orange car with White wheels, and I was thinking would orange hoses/rocker cover etc. look too much. Or should I use White? Or what other colours should I consider.

Any ideas/opinions are welcome

206 FTW!!!

keep it black mate, orange will be too much and white in an engine bay isnt going to stay white for long lol. just keep it clean and it will look nice imo!
