Too start, I'm deployed to Iraq and won't be home for a couple of months. So any suggestions and ideas that are given here, I won't be able to utilize and perform until I get back. With that being said...

One of my friends is going to detail my engine when I get back, because quite frankly it's filthy and is nothing special to look at. After it is cleaned and shiny again, I was wanting to paint some of the parts. I have a guy that will powder coat parts for me for cheap, so really what I'm asking, is what parts are safe to powder coat, and which parts actually look good with it?

I've never gotten the engine detailed and I've never had anything other than stock underneath my hood. Soon I'll be adding an aftermarket CAI, which is blue, so I was thinking I'd go with blue powdercoating.

Suggestions anyone?

^I'll laugh when that cheap part fails in less than a week.

Why bother with the exhaust or IM? IM can definitely be swapped for something better as well as the heat shield not fitting over a real header.

All stock for now, nothing modded as of yet, and it will probably stay that way for awhile.
