Postby Matt L on Sun Nov 30, 2003 9:04 pm

brought this engine of matt a few weeks back and now it sits nicely in my black mk3. I was just wondering do i keep the blue rocker cover on or do i put a chrome one on. all my mates just say, "s'up to you" or "dunno" so can sum people please give your views.
thanks

that is tough but i say be different and stick with the blue for the time being!!
it'll either grow on you to the point that you'll love it or you'll hate it and spend the extra money anyway!!!
everyone wants chrome but that blue suits the rest of your engine!!!
thats just my opinion!!

I think its nice m8, when i went to matt's to get my exhust the engine looked great, although I thought it might have looked better in a blue car as opposed to a grey car!

Its upto u though m8, personally I think maybe something different to chrome like the blue would be a wise move cuz everyone goes and gets chrome rather than being individual!
