Shroud Color Poll
What say yee...
Upgrading my 3.0 to a 3.2 short stroke in a 69E. What do you think is the best color for the engine shroud. Keep it true to an E and use a green engine shroud. Go with the early racing shroud.... gold. Stick with the 911S red shroud.

Do whatever you want!!!! There's no reason to pretend to be proper if you have a 3.2SS in a 69E, unless you're trying to hide it.
So if I have to vote, I say, Gold! Or Fiberglass!

I was asking myself the same question this afternoon. I was thinking about flat black (something a little different)

I voted original E green. I love that! but if when you say early racing gold, you mean raw fiberglass, I change my vote.

I voted gold but you should go for the color that matches the color of the car best.
That CF shroud is awesome!

I'm partial to brighter colors, the better to see oil leaks etc. Black tends to hide everything.
