ok I am planning on powder coating alot of metal pieces in the engine bay of my 420a eclipse..I was wondering if anybody can help me out on what other pieces would be cool to power coat as well..thanks in advance for all opinions..

this is what I have taken off so far

-valve cover
-battery tie down
-battery trey
-clucth fluid bottle holder bracket
-brake fluid bottle holder bracket
-coolient reservoir bottle holder
-two brakets that hold the radiatior in place that are on top
-metal piece between the headlights(where you use the lever to open the hood)
-hood prop rod
-metal piece that is under the fuse box that holds the fuse box in place
-metal piece that is near the fuse box that holds(what i think is a CPU)

so I think that about covers it I think it will look neat when it done..any other suggestions what I should take off and get powder coated?!?! I don't want too much blue in the engine bay..and I won't be powder coating the intake manafold eather...I think thats over doing it..anyways all of this is only gonna cost me 50 bucks pretty cool i think the price isn't bad when you get stuff in bluk..
 
wow he did alot of hardcore powder coating there..thats a little too much for me...I am doing a neo blue color..so when I pop my hood and stuff poeple can say "well thats cool what you did makeing those parts blue" and I don't wanna make em blind saying damn thats too much blue..but man wouldn't white powdercoating be really hard to keep clean?!?! but thanks for the link..I may powder coat my power steering res and thats about it..I'll post some pics of my car's engine bay when I get done..haven't updated my pics lately maybe i should..I think it would look sweet when its done
