Pink calipers on your car would look pretty cool.

I vote for pink valve cover and calipers!...that’s what I'm doing to the cb...I will also have a pink traction bar too...




But I do recommend spending good money on the paint....this is my fav shade of pink. But hella pricey...but I think it would be worth it




Also for your rims I would look into Rotoa rims...they are f-in sweet on hondas...few of my fav's












never mind the colors...they have diff. choices of colors

Heck yes Rotas are gorgeous. Don't forget you can always get them powder coated if you don't like the color. Also look for someone who can do powder coating outside of a shop. I have a guy out here who can do a valve cover for $40 with basic colors, $50 if you want color matching, $60/ea for rims. I haven't given him a visit yet because right now I have more important things (ball joints, suspension, new exhaust manifold) but I do plan on getting my valve cover done some time soon! It really spices up the engine. I'm leaning towards purple for my valve cover and potentially doing a cheap little roll-on paint job with the same color

You could also get an engine dress kit. It's another way to add a bit of zest to your engine bay. You can find all different colors of hoses, so you could get your valve cover powder coated and then get an engine dress kit to match that color. Always looks good if you use the right color.

I know this is an exterior thread, but I think an engine is also a good place to do some small appearance things, especially if you do work on it yourself. It's an eye catcher.

If you get tint, get it done professionally. There's nothing that looks worse than peeling/bubbling tint. Ugh.
