Default Opinion on engine dress up

Anyone have a review/opinion on these engine fastener dress up kit? Looks very complete, over 270 pieces.. but I'm concern about the color if it'll rub off if it's just cheaply painted on. Or any other options out there I should consider?
Thanks!

Save your money. You drive with the hood down, right?

It's hard anodized so the color is durable. Thus, if you like it, go for it.

Its $90.00. you could spend that money on performance. If you go to shows all the time . its maybe worth it. but you cant stop there with just washers. gotta shave the engine bay chrome it up or do a colour code plan. one of my mates is doing a shave and chrome. its a really big job..

I have other engine bay mods/dress up, this will be the final finishing touch. And I'm thinking ahead of Black Friday/cyber Monday sales of what I might try to grab

I guess it's like wearing fancy printed underwear, Chances are no one is ever going to see it unless your looking to show it off.
