I did mine last night, but I did it in gold cause I've never seen anyone with a gold IM and Spark plug cover. turned out ok, but i need to do a couple more coats.. check out my thread in the Custom..

Sorry.. didn't mean to thread bust... yours looks clean though...

I just cleaned it really good. No sanding the got high temp engine paint (nothing special) and put down like 6 thin coats. It took two can to do. And this was like 6 months ago and it still looks good.

I need to get a CAI and relocate the battery and then the engine bay will look perfect!

planning to relocate my battery too. Once I get a CAI. It just looks better and gives more space.

By the way have you put your motor build thread back up? Or how is it going with that?

the build thread as i went along isnt back up, but i did post up a k24a4 swap info thread. its in the ep3 swap section under the "important thread stickies" sticky. :mangel:

my biggest project is re-writing all the steps for the 5 lug swap diy to go with the shitton of pics i have for it. i saved the pics but not the write up... duh.

btw if you want your name changed back, lemme know.
