... uhhh yikes.... get the middle pillar back on your car.... and repaint your valve cover to match the SRI if you want the whole "matching thing"... I think you should keep the engine all black like it is... I think the electric blue trim on flat black is pretty, well... well it looks bad to me.

intake black would be ok but i say no about the blue filter. if you are going to get a filter, get a nice k&n one.

With your current paint job it is not going to make any difference if you paint it yellow, orange, or green[:'(]
