Re: Lets See Them Engine Covers!

^Cleaning it helps. You can always get some spray paint, High Temp or something made for painting Plastic helps. Paint the engine cover, fuse covers, etc etc. Stickers can help but that depends on placement and how its done.
Then you have Carbon fiber Engine covers ($100) Injen makes a Polished Metal one (about $100-150). You can change out the hose's (radiator) or get something that covers the lines.

Keep it clean by getting a good foaming cleaning product, cover your alternator and intake(if you have one) with aluminum foil to keep anything from getting in there and rinse with misty spray setting on water hose and(here comes the fun part) get some rattle cans of paint and any covers that can come off(valve cover, fuse box cover, etc.) and go crazy! Ill post mine up soon. Went shock yellow on my intake, white on my valve cover and red on my strut bar. pics soon!!!

Mine is almost done, just needs clear coat! Those aren't paint runs, it's airbrushed to look like rust coming off of the rivets. I wanted something totally different
