Custom Engine cover
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
Tom
