The most time you'll spend on it will be the masking.
This is how mine came out because I took my time:

When I painted mine I used the vaseline method by applying it to parts I do not want to paint. Yuck is how I describe it came out. The vaseline didnt' quite completely mask the area and it was messy wipping off. I got mad and just painted the whole thing silver..made life easier Actually it would've made my life easier by leaving it alone in the first place.

It's funny how many people recommend this technique but have never tried it. You are the first person that I know of in the last 20 years who has actually done it; and you got just the results that I predicted. Maybe we can now kill this stupid tech tip. Thanks for being the guinea pig.

These peeps are saying that you can buy the spark plug cover for 30 bones. That can't be right....I just got back from the Nissan Dealership, and they told me 65, and thats wholesale dealer cost (b/c my father owns a dealership).
Help me out guys...
