Just painted the engine bay. More to come when she gets out of the body shop.



For some reason the app on my phone turns pictures sideways...

 

Sick! Did you use the same engine enamel as me?

 

Yeah haha. That's why I aksed the color. I saw it and I knew it was a perfect match.

 

Oh sick haha looks good. Do your calipers that color? Thats what i did mine in.

 

Not yet. I'm waiting to do the calipers till I decide if I want to plasti dip my rims. Could go black, red, blue (might be to much) or just a nice aluminum coating to restor them. Then Ill decide exactly how I want the calipers. The blue looks good. But too much feels like it would look tackey. Have to be careful how much I do.

 

You guys made your engine bay look like highlighters lol. Im gonna do mine yellow in the spring/summer when it warms back up. lol

 

Well I have a bright car. Its suprising how much it pops when she's freshly waxed. Cant wait to polish her again next spring.

 

Hey cocky, do you know if you can plasti dip tires? I think it would be cool to white wall my tires with plastidip. Haha.

Edit: definantly gonna plasti dip my tires to be WWW's. I need new tires anyways.

 

Lmao plastidip your rims black, you wont regret it. And. Um. No haha it will Deffinetly not stick on tires. Still tape them off when you paint but no white walls haha and yeah man the painted engine bay really makes your car pop when your hoods open. I love that my engine bay matches the calipers and emblems.

 

Everything Iv been reading says it will stick to the tires. Even seen a couple people do it. Just gotta clean em real good and their is a yellowing issue. But if I do a dark undercoat might not have that problem. Ill prob go black on the rims and do the calipers at the same time when she gets out of the body shop. But I gotta do my valve covers first.
