Today I had some extra time and decided to paint my wheel wells and my coils. Tomorrow I am going to paint the engine bay area. I painted the coil covers after I finished putting all the parts back together when we finished the drop.









600th post!

 

Almost done with Engine Bay. Just letting some parts dry before it is put back together.

 

Finished!

 

looks good. didnt think of that when i did my suspension

 

I have wanted to do this. When we did the drop I got a chance and took it.

 

yeah well, it looks great!!

 

Looks better in person.

 

im sure, i just got my ignition fixed (agian) and now everything is running perfectly!!

 

Again?

 

yeah my dad killed the other one?!?!?

 

You may already know this, but one of the best masking tools for engine compartment paint work is aluminum foil - works great to wrap around hoses, etc.

 

I had no idea. I just used painters tape and newspaper.

 

That makes a lot of since. I might be doing something like that soon.

 

Doing what?

 

what kind of paint did you use???

 

It was just some paint I found at Lowe's. It was 2.68 a can. I bought 3 of them. I will have to look in the morning at the cans. But what I do know is it is rust protective and a high gloss black.


Then the red parts are Dupli-Color Cherry Red.

 

Ok the black is Aero Tech Rust RX Gloss Black.

 

Painting the wheel wells.

 

What color? Gray or Black? I actually started out with a grey paint then repainted them black.

 

probably black, ive never seen grey wheel wells before??
