mine was gloss black..now its chipped black

 

I havent painted mine yet but going to have it matched as soon as I can

 

matched to what? lol. your car is back. just get some black high heat paint from walmart or oriellys

 

i mean matched to my sc lol shoulda clarified. I want it purple. Umm the guy with the s2000 showed me a link to the purple I want. Its pretty epic. lemme try and find it

 

I want the supercharger and valve cover and well anything else I can paint on the engine bay to be this color

that will be too much pruple. u need some black

 

lols yeahh but i still really like that purple color. its hot! lol

 

I'm paintin mine gold right now

 

I think its the lighting that makes that purple look so dark. I personally think that would look bad ass. And I certainly applaud you for being willing to shell out the money for House of Kolor paints. Haha

 

hahaha I was gonna do my brakes an valve cover Pegan Gold from them a lil whiles back

 

well if youre painting it yourself instead of paying someone else to paint it I think it pretty much balances out in price idk lol

 

almost done... gotta sand,clear it, and do the letters wrinkle blk... Black car, gold brembos, wrinkle black intake/ic pipes, i think it'll be purdy

 

Twins? lol

 

maybe not, It'll be hawt once done,my ic pipe covers part of it, so it's not 2 crazy

 

lmfao! Paint the words Gold Dust on it!!

 

i say jizz stain white

 

Hahaha!! I think that gold looks pretty damn sexy on that valve cover. How hard is it gonna be to do the lettering in the black?

Heres what mine looks like right now.

Im not sure if I should stick with the red or what I should do.

 

you should buy my black k&n intake is what you should do! lol

 

Haha. How much you want for it and is it a cai or a sri?

 

its sri basically the same you have haha trying to get atleast 150 from it since its pretty new. didnt even have it on for a year. bout 6k miles or so ha

 

shameless advertisin

I plastidip'd the letters first cuz my dude did his hood an had a bunch layin around(o i know, I know! ) but the after tapin em off, the paint came up, o duh

now that I'm all drunk an ****, im thinkin ima jus do a wrinkle black on the letters an redo my wrinkle black intake/Charge pipes, which look ok, but not as good as I want em..

 

would plastidip be able to handle high heat? I have some gunmetal left over that I wouldnt mind using to paint a few things lol

 

and leave my advertising alone I just wanna get rid of the intake already its just sitting there being all like hey man. remember that time you spent 260 on me?

 

I would man but Im wanting a true cai. Im tired of having the filter in the bay and Im still up in the air with possibly putting on a supercharger.

But I think Im going to continue with the color scheme of the exterior of the car. I know black is hard to clean but I just dont want a bunch of random colors. Im thinking I may do black on the valve cover. Probably black then polish the letters so they are silver. Then redo my fuse box cover black again and my computer cover. Although is thee really any reason to keep that pcm cover on? Ive noticed alot of people taking them off.

Also, would there be any ill effects of removing the firewall insulation stuff? Since were on the subject of the engine bay I figured I'd ask. Haha. But I had a rat get in my bay over the winter and tear that insulation **** up. I've already pulled the hood insulation off but Im just wondering about the stuff on the firewall. Plus it'd make it easier to keep clean.

 

haha I got a blk balt 2, but the gold calipers & valve cover I think'll brake it up a lil bit.. I got an Injen CAI right now, Fend trade it/get a K&N SRI an sell mine.. whichever comes first CAI's cool an all, but drivin thru the rain's not, trust me, I've been there


I got Plastidip on my wheels right now, I've seen people plastidip their calipers, an it looks good after a "year or so" I was thinkin if it fades out, or bubbles up, I can jus peel it off an redo it good but after the paint/clear dries, I might try the plastidip if I feel like it.. it's cheaper than a can of wrinkle black i guess...

if I plastidip the letters, I'll praly have to do my Intake/charge pipes jus to match it up
