07 STROKER · April 19th, 2009, 10:45 PM

damn you...now i want to do mine

It looks great, what kind of paint did you use?

psycho bob · April 19th, 2009, 10:51 PM

super cheap and it almost matches the alloy perfectly. got the paint from advanced auto parts. it's the charcoal metallic. i would seriously doubt anyone will ever notice they aren't the same color as the car. really was super easy.

used regular duplicolor auto paint w/ a high temp clear. all of it was duplicolor though. didn't sand it smooth either. it looks great in person. can't wait to get the cam covers done. cleaning the parts is the hard part that takes all the time.

damn you I was looking at my front cover and valve covers earlier. I was about to do the exact same thing lol. I just didn't feel like driving 20 minutes to the nearest auto parts store and buying paint lol. It really looks good.

And not to Hi-Jack the thread, but I got a question for you guys. What do you think a black front cover along with blue valve covers would look like???? I HAVE to have blue valve covers, but I think a blue front cover would be too much. I dunno, help me out!!

Paint the timing chain cover silver or black

silverstang · April 20th, 2009, 08:55 AM
