SDG engine cover painted *pics*

Decided to play around under the hood and have some paint-work done. Check out the pics. I'm not sure of this or not, but I may be the only one to have the engine cover painted Sundance Gold.

Looks good. Also, you mean PDG, but I'm sure you knew that.

Agreed. I suggested to him to only paint the main cover as the black cover creates a nice contrast. Also, with all the other SDG under the hood, I think anything more would be overkill.

I do!

I wasn't the first one with the pdg engine cover either, I've seen a few pics in the past. I might be the first with pdg headlights?! Funny I'm in the middle of painting that "3.2 VTEC" part right now, I got on the net to kill time while the paint dried.

You don't mind if I bite your style do you? I'm planning on painting my headlights PDG as well. And I might go ahead and paint the outer rim of the grill PDG as well, to keep it unique.
