Painting Engine Cover

Painted my engine cover this arvo ( will post pics up soon

) I used engine enamel, how long should I wait before I can put it back in and drive it without mucking up the paint? Also, is the car ok to drive without the cover?

The pictures were taken at night under like 3 sets of lights, it looks a little more toned down in the day time. Will post daytime pics when I get some

Good job though but yeah interesting colors, but could just be the lighting

yeah, uhhh. WOW.

Me and Braydon took my cover off last night and cleaned it and then blackened it. Nice and new looking now. Still deciding on how I am going to design my engine bay...

Hmm I dont see how its bright as everyones saying.
Whats wrong with abit of colour? I reckon it looks mad dude.
Im thinking of paining mine black and yellow.
I'll probably change my mind when it comes closer to the date of the actual painting looool.
Shoulda showed me that day, woulda been good to see.

Haha no problems!
Youll get a close up look of my ride also - you should pop by my place on Wednesday man, if your up for it and free ofcourse.

Daniel2019 · Post by **Daniel2019** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 10:12 pm

Wednesday probably not hahah, too much traffic after school. Weekend, maybe

iPilot · Post by **iPilot** » Fri Mar 09, 2012 10:40 pm

no problem man, weekend though i finish work at 7pm and would be home by roughly 8pm.
I doubt you'd wanna see the car at night time though especially considering its black & u wont see sh*t haha!

Daniel2019 · Post by **Daniel2019** » Sat Mar 10, 2012 3:20 am
