Should I paint my air lid ?
I was cleaning on my engine the other day with some de-greaser and wipe off the air-lid and the SLP letters came right off.
Should I leave it all black, paint it a different color or put some type of badge or maybe LS1 on it ? Any ideas ?
I have some red CAMARO letters I could put on it

I decided to go with gloss black. I am also painting the base for the lid in gloss back. I have it done just gotta let it dry then re-install.
