fuse cover is a metallic red but looks more orange, might end up respraying that

back inside the car I've tried a bit of brushed steel effect vinyl, thinking of doing the  whole centre console in it but not sure yet

Nice work Jay, loving the engine cover-ferrari esque. Is it done in crinkle effect paint (like the ferrari covers?)
