Opinions... Painting engine bay

[chickenwing]

Well after 19 months my beloved Kragens long block has spun a bearing. uh thats sarcasm. Anyway, figured I would clean up the bay for the new GM crate motor. Thinking about painting the original Hawaiian Blue on the firewall and fenders but painting the fenderwells some color of gloss white. Or maybe the whole bay gloss white. Will probably leave the radiator support/battery boxes black.
BTW my rt fender has a ton of bondo in it and I don't think I have the talent to make the wheel arch look right. Any suggestions on a new fender?
Here's some pics. If anyone is in Sacramento and wants to come play in my garage drop me a line. My regular wrench turnin buddy went to the desert.





Hope the pics worked.
