Porsche Engine Shroud Colors

I get asked this question all the time!  I have gotten into long debates and done significant research on the subject.  This is by far the best documentation that I have found on the topic.  But then again, it's your motor, so if you're not going for restoration accuracy, paint it any color you want!!!  Just a note, the original shroud was made of fiberglass that had a dye in the resin so they technically were never painted.  That's why you see the rough texture on your factory original engine shroud!!!  (Banner Red Krylon is a pretty good match for the original red shrouds)
