I picked is called a blue-black. It's a very dark black without the gloss, had a buddy make a small batch for this specific job. I still have to paint the radiator support bracket that runs in the front in the new brighter M3 red. I had a buddy do a photoshop of everything and it looks pretty good overall. I wanted to go for different but not over the top. With the layout I have for the engine colors and details throughout the engine bay should look pretty mean overall. Basically wanted people to see my engine bay and know it was my engine bay....gotta be different but not too different to where I am a total retard......well.......we will just leave that one alone.
