Hey Guys,

This weekend I decided to paint my engine covers. I started last night and took all day to finish but the end result was pretty good considering its all duplicolor. I'm just wanting for it to cure for the rest of the day, but I put it all back on to take pics.

very nice very nice

i was planning to paint my engine cover also... did you use any clear coat and does it look like it was professionally done? use a spray gun? or just from a regular can

Thanks guys, Just paint my calipers also, but I didn't like the blue that duplicolor offers so I went with black instead. It was to dark for pics, so I'll post those later.

Nice, If you get that engine bay washed to bring some shine in it would definately set it off, IMO

I used Duplicolor white primer.

Not bad, thinking that finished project is gonna look a whole lot better when done.

nice job. i thought they were painted at carlisle. either way they look good.

They were, traded straight up last year with a .net member. His painted covers for my stock. They were supposedly professionally painted, but were really crappy looking instead. So I finally got around to re-doing them myself.
