Custom Painted Engine Cover

So, I had some spare time this weekend and decided to paint my engine cover. I know it doesn't exactly match my car, seeing as how my car is neither black nor silver. But personally I felt painting part of it blue would been to "ricey" It has its imperfections, but what do you guys think?

I thought about it, but I just didn't like the blue and black as much.
