nah that's not to blue.... if you were concerned about it though or wanted the wires to stand out a bit then black would be just fine....

I would say just use one color. But like others have said chrome goes w/ anything. Check out my engine, Ive got red/maroon and chrome headers and it looks pretty good imho For my sub wiring I covered it w/ black (ah shoot i forget the name of the plastic stuff you put wires in). They have it at wal mart for pretty cheap, and if you dont like the color, just excahnge it!

yeah I'm a moron... *L* polished metal is going to looke like chrome anyway.... unless you get something that is painted silver... Also, if you wanted the valve cover to stand out a little more then get a blue or a chrome/silver oil filler cap...
