Painting my engine covers this weekend. Can anyone recommend a good spray paint that will hold up well against the heat? Also is sanding and primer needed? I'd like to do it right the first time.

High temp engine paint? Maybe header paint or brake caliper paint? Although the color choices are very limited.

anyone here up for a cruise from Milpitas to San Gregorio State Beach? This a cruise being put together by a local bay area car club (no, it's NOT TeamREV...lol) to commemorate September 11th. Obviously it will take place on that day (Sunday) and the meet up time is 10am @ The Best Buy parking lot in Milpitas. Of course, myself along w/my teammates Sir Eddie, Vimal, and Pedro and others will be participating. Hope some of you that we haven't seen in quite some time (HINT: HEY-SUSE!!!!!) would consider going. It will be for a good cause, so looking forward to hearing positive results from you guys/gals....

Congrats to SilverTL510 aka Pedro for winning People's Choice and a $50 cash prize!! As you can see Team REV also took home Best Team ($200 cash price), Best Motorcycle and Best 4 door. Last 2 didn't come with $. This was at MVP Arena autoshow hosted by District 10. We didn't know about this until the very last minute and thanks to Lito for pulling/rallying everyone together last minute!

Thanks! The owner of the bike is Cody. He's never owned an Acura so never was part of the Azine community. Here's a pic of the bike.



good luck on getting the CF on. Is it real CF and are you doing it yourself? Big props to you if you are.
