Engine dressup?!!?

I've seen ppl with color panels on their engines, how do they do that? Is it a kit or paint or what, i think it looks great, just don't know what it is called.
Where would i get it??

Thanks in advance!

Color Panels? Are you talking about painted fuel rail covers, valve covers, ect?

You can paint them. They easily come off with screws and then you paint them with whatever paint you want. You may want to use a high temperature paint but you can probably get by without it. For the valve cover you could powder coat it or polish is. I polished mine but it needs redone.

Here was my original set up with painted covers



Then I switched the coil pack to the MRZ covers.

MRZ has nice underhood stuff. If you can't afford that... there's always spraypaint.

2007 2.2 design is started now witch is pretty similar to the 2.4 witch will be done afterward. It can take up to a couple weeks before they are ready for sale...

2005-2006 2.2 will be made later on also.

We'll keep you guys updated
