Need your opinions...

Hey guys I currently have a red AEM Cold Air Intake installed in my car. Well, it just so happens that I have an extra polished one sitting here in my room as well. I am wondering if I should either stay with the red intake or change to the polished one. My car is red. Here is my current setup:

Well, I plan on chroming my valve cover later down the road as well. I just didn't know if polished fits a red car or not...

Sorry, I already have a buyer for one of the intakes. He goes to my school, so it's a lot easier. I think I am gonna have to go with keeping the polished one and sell my friend the red one though. You guys think that will look okay?

I had a chrome intake on my car for a little while. I hated it. Stick with the Red. Easier to clean and looks nice.

I alost noticed that around my exhaust tip, it is black. And when I rev the engine into red line and look at the exhaust, I notice a very small amount of black smoke comes out. Any ideas?

not a fan of anythign other than black and silver or chrome under the hood. my header clashes with my intake and shock tower bar right now and it kinda drives me nuts. [header is ceramic coated, shock tower bar is polished, and intake is silver]

if that was my car it'd have the chrome one. that red doesnt match the car. maybe if it matched it would be better. hell, looks like its time to paint the car! haha
