Need opionions

Im fixing up a few things in the engine bay and one of those things is redoing everything that was silver. Just not sure if I redo everything silver again or polished alloy. I dont have pics with the throttle body and IC piping but they will be done as well. What do you think would look better.
 



 
Polished alloy

    Dunno how pedantic or how often you drive, but polished stuff doesnt stay shiny and will require constant attn.

    I actually like the matte silver colour. Polished reminds me too much of muscle car, unless that's what you're trying to convey.

    I think silver would look nice, that way everything has the same appeal, nothing alone but everything together is screaming look at me.  Shut up, that make perfect sense in my head.

    +1 for silver. I'm not a fan of polished alloy unless it's a show car
