Well, I give you an A for effort, an A for creativity and props to you for having the ***** to post that up on here.
As has been said on here in the past: - as long as you like it, that's all that matters.
P.S: I really like the clean job you did taping the "V6".
Thanks, I appreciate it!

Also the side and bottom covers themselves arent really smooth like the engine cover so I expected that

Thanks!

Well I DID just spray paint it lol. I wasnt looking to do this professionally or anything, I just experimented with it since the covers arent really that expensive to replace if I didnt like the end result.
i think it looks better than stock yea its not professionally done but you also didnt spend $200-300....soo if it works for you thats all that matters!
