i was just wondering what colour the people in ausmini think would look the best on the engine going in my clubman. im leaning towards black and leaving gearbox and cover silver,or even red with gearbox and cover black. any suggestions and pictures would be appreciated.

yes , but i really think the cooper s shade would not suit in a clubby. and im defiantly dont plan on oil leaks for a long time.


Our white clubby has the cooper S green painted engine(not exactly a couple shades lighter).. It looks like something you'd find in a nappy (in a clubby that is) And the oil leaks don't help at all. Go black. Always looks neat. 8)

This looks quite neat and clean, otherwise red block, head with a silver geabox and flywheel housing looks very good too :!:
