Nice job!

 

Good ole 420. Looks nice. Polish up the lettering some?

 

Looks pretty good. Its been awhile since I have seen under the hood of a 2g nt. But yours looks pretty good.

I see a couple flaws, first off your engine is on the wrong side, and what about them cam gears? There backwards. Oh and you forgot to put your turbo on. Lol, im hilarious but looks good.

Looks good man. I been thinking about doing the same to mine but in black.

 

Needs flames.

 

Thanks. I need to polish up the letters more but I haven't been to the store to buy more sand paper.

 

You put a new wrinkle on the art of underhood decor. Can you get red radiator hoses to have the red theme going?

 

Wow, really nice job. You should do the intake pipe in the same color. I have a Red/Silver and Polished theme. Keep it up.

 

I actually did think about getting red radiator hoses but I haven't decided if I wanted to yet. Yeah, the intake would look good like that.

 

Nice job, I've been thinking of painting mine. I have a Black/Blue Polished theme in the works. Once again nice job, keep it up.

 

Looks really nice. I'm liking the rough finish, too bad it's not a 4G63

 

I recently decided to paint my valve cover with red wrinkle finish paint. This is how it turned out, so tell me what you think.

For some reason the pictures aren't coming up can you send them to me?
I have been wanting to re-paint mine as well i just don't know where to start.

 

The main thing with painting something like this is to clean it very well. I had a problem the first time I ever tried spraying a valve cover. The oil on the cover likes to create the fish eye effect. The other precaution I took was to spray the cover with primer first.

 

Looks Really Nice man i`m Planing to paint mine too, Could you tell me what kinda paint you used?

 

I used red wrinkle finish paint. You can buy at any autoparts store.

Good job on the paint!

 

Can you Paint the radiator Hoses too or can you buy Colored One?

 

Paint them with high temp paint , i don't know how paint sticks to rubber though. I would give it a shot though.

Just buy red hoses. Painted hoses is ghetto. Just liked spray painted interior pieces.

Very nice job on the valve cover. So you said you used primer, how many coats of that and how many coats of paint? Did you use regular paint or did you use Hi-temp paint? Have you driven it much yet since you painted it? Is is still looking just as good as when you first put it on?

 

I sprayed two coats of primer and two coats of just regular paint. I drive this car everyday and the paint holds up fine. The color has changed to more red than orange red.

 

Looks good. I've wanted to do this to mine. I might later on down the road.

 

Good job, im going to be doing this in a little while. Is there a way to not get the wrinkle effect?

Don't buy the wrinkle paint :dunno:

 

Idk I thought maybe all you could buy is wrinkle paint.
