Finally got a chance to pick up my engine cover from the body shop today. I think the result is awesome, the engine compartment looks much nicer now. Also had a chance to armor-all the hoses and really clean things up. Here are a few pics, lemme know what you guys think!

 

looks nice

 

sweet, I wanna do that to my max....

 

Looks good.

 

Looks great, any other plans for the engine bay?

 

I like. Nice job.

 

Man that is nice, I dont have the cover cuase i have a 00 but i took the cover off the spark plugs and painted it. Doesnt look as good but your right it makes a big difference

 

I like it. Great job..

 

Looks nice. Time for some new radiator mounts.

 

SEmy2k2, I was thinking about that today. Once I start modding again this summer I'm gonna pick some up and have them painted too.

Fr33way- Well I still wanna do the Frankencar Intake and I may have that painted to match as well. Once that is done I'm not sure what else I could so other than maybe paint the fluid caps silver which I've considered.

Thanks for all the comments guys, I'm so in love with my engine bay right now!

 

Amomaxima get the AE cover for your car.... loks good ....

Great job on the paint... looks great.. some rad mounts and done..... nice job

 

man that looks great!

 

Just get out the polish and you can have it look like this.....

 

Thanks nismo!

Blues how much time did that take???

 

see? i knew it would look awesome even with a lighter color! many of you were doubting whether that would be true, and i think it looks AWESOME! (the grill AND the engine cover) looks niiiiice

Since i had a little fender bender, i still may do this...i was quoted at like 540 to fix the little bit of damage, and to paint the front bumper and grill...but i didnt ask about the engine cover...may have to do this though...looks mighty fine!

 

i def think im going to have to go to that meet now that looks sexy!!!

 

Looks good!

 

looks nice i had same thing done but in candy red and i left the letters same factory color. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Looks nice, a little detail work like that makes a big difference, fo sho!

 

I don't know exactly cause I didn't do it all at once. A little at a time last summer. Overall, I'd estimate 20 or so hours. There's a bunch more stuff that is polished that can't be seen very well in the engine bay pic.

 

Looks good... I like the color and the look..

 

For anyone worndering this cost me $50 cash at a body guy I trust. Plus I am the one that taped off the lettering, they did the emblem for me. Still cant get enough, looks so damn good!! :-)

 

I love mine. I always wondered how it would look on a lighter colored car. Subtle. I like it.

 

GBAUER you were my inspiration!!!!

 

Thanks. Check out the Fog Light mod I did. Just posted it. Come on! Keep up, damnit!

 

Nice i love it
