    I hate the fact that my GN has a black engine bay (but in reality...what other color could it possibly be, haha) It looks good on first glance, however when I was literally inside the engine bay replacing the cam I realized how extremely dirty and greasy everything really was.

    '93 525iT - 5-speed swap - 320k and counting
    '09 328xi - 6-speed

        body color. Plus silver hides dirt, so, it is better for the engine bay anyway!

        Black is lose/lose
