Well guys, my dad and I bought some paint this weekend and fixed up my engine cover. First, we sanded it down to roughen the surface a little so the paint could bond to the plastic better. Then we painted all letters silver. Next, we rubbed vasoline on the numbers to protect them, and painted the rest of the cover blue, and when that all dried we used finger nail polish to paint the"SERIES II" red. What do you guys think? The only thing I noticed is how when the paint dried to the cover ti looked like Ford blue. Pretty....

 

I want to paint mine orange, but aren't ford engines painted blue and chevy orange?
It matches the car though it looks nice

 

looks nice,
yes the older chevy motors were orange
but thr fords were blue

 

NICE! I like the blue, besides you got a car that is F__d blue. I like the silver lettering.
I painted mne black on my '01, and added a SS factory emblem.

I think it looks trick. Very nice!

I pulled mine off because it keeps too much heat in the supercharger and I need to cool it off.

 

i never thought about the SS emblem idea... neat

 

I see your dad is from the old school. Last time I said something about using vasoline on parts that you dont
want to be painted, people thought that I was crazy. HATS OFF TO YOUR DAD...... OLD SCHOOL
STYLE OF DOING THINGS

The cover looks nice......
