Thsi may sound crazy but I see alot of guys painting the engine covers but what about a high heat resistant vinyl wrap?? What are your thoughts? Possible?? I mean the design possibilities are infinite and we could do some really cool stuff. I have seen firewalls on hot rods with vinyl wraps.

 

If it's high heat it should be perfectly fine.

 

It can withstand the heat on the engine. I painted my engine over and on the big piece in the middle that has the Nissan emblem, I used black matte vinyl to wrap it and its holding the heat great. It's been a year n half now n no problem

 

Here is what the vinyl engine cover will look like. Or a slight variation of it. I amy just do all flames and scrap teh superman logo. Thoughts???

 

 

Not really my thing, but if it tickles your pickle go for it.

 

yeah its a little cheesy. I think i may just do the flames on all of the plastic covers under the hood. I really dont know yet. This has to have some thought. I welcome any ideas. I just figured flames under a hood on a black car all blacked out would be pretty cool.

 

I think i'm just prejudiced against flames from the overuse of them on EVERYTHING when i was a kid. Personally i was just going to do my covers in k50 with red accents like the rest of my car. Might as well keep the color theme going.

 

yeah that sounds sweet. I really dont know what i wanna do. great thing about vinyl is you can do anything so i better not rush this.

Whats K50?

 

Dark Slate color code.

Dunno maybe you can do them black with blood running down them heh. My creativity is at 0 right now.

 

lol eerie but not bad. definitely a little more original then flames!
