Hey that looks really nice! I would love to do something similar to my white stang. Did you paint these yourself or did you get the manifold cover and coil covers from an aftermarket site? This is really sharp man!

Thanks for the feed back guys! I had a friend of mine that works at a body shop take off my radiator cover, coil covers and intake cover. He had them painted and back on the car within 2 days. I was very happy with how it turned out. I love popping the hood at car shows and people drool over it

I did think about painting the strut tower brace, but I almost thought that would be overkill on the white. But who knows its always an option.

Looks great! One possible enhancement to continue your theme is to powdercoat your intake sheet metal baffle in PW as well. A formerly active TMS member, ModShack, posted pics of his white 5.0 with the Steeda intake that he powdercoated in white, and with the blue air filter it looked KILLER. I think it would look equally awesome with your red filter.

Hey , how did you get the "powered by ford" red? Did you tape most of it off first or do that second? I just bought the blue to imitate the boss coil covers but was thinking of making the letters black while having the rest blue. But thinking about it I don't think it'll be easy to get it nice and even....

Working on mine today. Used krylon fusion for plastic paint. Going to do my engine cover eventually too.
Painted the coil covers and front rad cover white.
Then masked out the powered by ford and spears to paint black. This gave me a major headache. Haha
Photos to come a bit later.

Here are the pics:

Powered By Ford masked off:

Done for now:
Will be putting on painted battery and master cylinder covers soon. Still deciding what to do with my engine cover, and if I want to do the fuse box cover and intake cover.
