Minor Update
Thought I'd post some pics of my painted engine cover. I had been thinking about doing this since summer and finally got around to it last month.

i gotta ask this, i dont understand... why do people paint their engine covers something totally different from their car's exterior/original paint?
i mean it looks good, and looks like a good job, and matches the intake well, but blue inside the engine bay of a silver car?
props for the work and if you like it, but i just dont get it...?

i kicked myself in the ass the day after i got my oem sideskirts back from the shop, like why didnt i give em my engine cover plastics as well.... but they're ok in black. to each his own and im stoked you like em, but to me blue inside a silver engine bay just never made sense. but once again the work is nice, and it does look good... just not my style
props again !
