Hey guys,

I got bored and decided to paint my engine cover but I was not happy with the way it came out so I decided I would trim the entire cover down and repaint the entire thing. I got the idea to do this from member XtremeCoupe, I did not think to do this all on my own.

It came out much better than I thought it would I painted the outiside of it with a textured black, and the inner part with a metalic silver, I wanted to keep the OEM color pattern. Then I put a couple coats of clear to give the cover some shine. I give it a 8/10, the only bad thing being the tape lines didn't come out great.

I snapped a few pics, but there is some glare. I was going to get a 350z engine cover, but I think I will use this cover for awhile now.

Let me know what you think

wow, that looks pretty interesting.. and creative. I think it looks good. Well done.

 

Pretty creative. Nice!

 

I'm supprised with all the other mods you've made I don't see a MD spacer
under your top plenum, gotta be worth a few more HP!

 

what did you use to trim it? looks good.

 

First thing I thought was a flower, lol. Then I thought bewbs. It used to have a 6-pack, now it just has two bewbs.

Take the cover off completely. Looks better without it.

Sick air diversion panel, though!

 

no my thing but does look pretty girly with all the curves

 

i like your shinny BOV...

pPPPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSSsssssssssssHHHHHHHHHhhhhh hh

 

I'd gone matte black, it'd look real smooth. But that's very creative look. I havn't run my cover for a long time now...I really dont know where the cover is.

 

Wow, before the pics I was expecting to hate it but that came out pretty well!

I think it looks really nice actually

+1 on the curvy.

 

Nice DIY mod!
