New Pics of Painted S/C

I used Dupli Color Graphite High Performace Wheel Coating, let me know what yall think.

I think this is how it should have looked from the factory...

yea if i was a little more confident in my polishing skills i would give that a try but im just tryin to keep it all clean and sleek. Im gonna do the fuel rail cover and spark plug cover the same color tomorrow i will post some pics up. I might do the whole valve cover while im at it.... is it hard to get the valve cover off?

Looks good

: Now you gotta keep it clean! That should be easier now that it's painted though.
