Actually, you edited mention of the pinstripe out of the post and it still showed up on the instant email notification of the thread update. ![Doh](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/doh.gif)
I kept waiting for what was next.

I did it in white text, hence the
lol.
I also decided to paint my engine covers while I was outside all day today too. They should be dry any time now so I'll snap a pic of those too.

Thanks guys. ![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
I had those Brembo covers but they got messed up when I got my fenders rolled so I'm going to order a new set some time and match them to the front brakes like they were before.
I'll grab a couple of pictures tomorrow with our other camera. I would have today but I was tired as hell after being outside all day between taking off the pinstripe, putting on those rain guards, and painting the engine covers.

Thanks everybody for the compliments.
Just hit me up when you get back Donnie. I gotta couple of things on my list that I'll need a second set of hands to get done.![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
Here are some pics from after I washed her. Not happy with the pics but hey, I was using my iPotato.![rofl](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
Here are the painted engine covers. I think the color is Torque N' Teal. And don't mention the missing front cover, I lost the clips for it when I was taking off my bumper one time.![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)

Nice job on the engine covers, Ross.
I like the blue-just carry that color somewhere else on the car to tie it all together.

That blue looks sick Meko. I think I'm going to redo mine now. ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
I decided to refinish my headlights today. The lights weren't that bad, but you can see the slight hazing on the driver side headlight in the first pic. I wetsanded them with 1000, 1500, 2000, and then 3000 grit sandpaper followed by Meguiars PlastX polish, and lastly Meguiars PlastX protectant. I may get a clear bra on the headlights tomorrow just to keep them looking good.
You can see the haziness in this pic:

And the finished here's the finished product; they look brand new.
