looks good.
These are updated pics. Ended up painting the battery tie and the piece thats holds that hose next to the spark plug cover.
My brother in law and I were painting the rims on the RX8. turned out pretty good. I had about half a can left so I decided to waste it. I havn't seen anyone with a gold IM cover so I thought I should go for it. Let me know what you guys think. I may need to do a couple more coats. Sorry for the bad pics. off my cell phone.

Thanks. It could use a couple more coats though. It looks too light. but then again I don't have the best camera.
wow man that looks incredibly clean!!! great idea and great job...you have excellent taste haha (i havnt seen something that clean done to the covers in the engine bay before, i just went silver vc and silver covers)
my ep is white...

looks good to me. i wish i could say the same thing about the wing you sold to me back in the day...i got lazy and didnt take care of CF like i should of n the clear coat is shot now.
That looks super clean. Good job!
I have been kicking myself in the ass since that day cause I wished I never sold it..lol.. i waxed it every weekend. Is it really bad? Wanna sell it back to meI have a nuespeed front strut bar in flat black and a ebay rear strut bar that i would trade you. name your price.
wow.. thats really tight.
The gold and silver look amazing.
What paint did you use and also how did you re apply the ivtec logo plate? I want to do this, make this into a DIY please!!!
I used Dupli-Color Engine Enamel for high heat resistant. I actually didn't preapply the covers at all. I was thinking of sanding it a little, but i just did light thin coats, waited 5-10 mins in between to cover up then did some thicker coats. I did not remove the
I-VTEC. .lol..I just covered it with painters tape. if anyone has done at least minimal spray painting, this is an easy DIY project. Heck if anyone local would like thiers painted, I can do it for them. just hook it up with a big mac or starbucks or something..
I really like it! Do you have gold rims? If you did you would be color cordinating! LOL
looks sharp.....damn, all these hot girls in av's is distracting me too much!!!!
