Super bored, need some input

Got a 12 valve I’m building for my Hudson Hornet and I want to paint the valve and timing cover a bunch of random colors. Couple requirements; 1.) I need to be able to get it at an auto parts store because I don’t want to drive the extra five minutes to the paint supply. 2.) each part needs to be a different color. 3.) already decided one of them is going to be whatever shade of pink I can find.

Back in the day, I had an old single-cam 240sx with the valve cover painted to look like a loaf of Wonderbread. You could paint it to look like your favorite candy wrapper or beer box, but replace the text with “Cummins”.
My other idea would be a black and yellow hornet theme, but then what do you do with the pink?

The pink would be missing and I fucking hate bees

Look at some old school or mid school freestyle bikes. They have wild paint jobs. One cool trick is splatter painting. Check it out.

Didn’t even cross my mind. I just want it to look as ridiculous as possible while still being the coolest car at the meet

Putting a 12v cummins into a Hudson Hornet is way cooler than any splatter paint job.
