E3 Wheel color

Thanks. Does the same apply to all aluminum parts? Im thinking of the timing chain covers, water pump, oil pan. If not, what is the right color? The Argent silver mentioned above or more like a flat aluminum?

I would recommend vapour honing the alu parts. Looks best in my opinion.

No paint on the aluminum parts. Vapuor honing only.

I vapor honed my e12 parts but they come out a bit brighter then tumbling so I used a matte clear ceramic, looks just as nice and it was cheaper. I shot the ceramic myself.

Original paint, not exactly shiny but gray/silverish.
