Looks good. Will the engine heat have any effect on the paint's durability? Perhaps not.
I don't know if I'd paint the other covers. Over the years they'll just get nicked up and scuffed. If they are painted they will look pretty ratty.

I am considering painting my engine and engine bay covers. My concern is the roughness of the bay covers. Will sanding alone smooth those bay covers out for painting? I'm not worried about the tedious task of painting, I'm more concerned about preparing the engine bay covers. Any input?
