a lot of you asked me to post some pics from my engine bay. well here you are... enjoy and please remember its winter up here. its very dirty and needs some cleaning. and the wires are a tangled mess i know. but hopefully will be better after a swap!

Looks really good, very nice and clean. Nice toys. I don't know what to say about the swap, so I'm just gonna say I like it how it is. :)

Have any far away pics so we can see the whole thing?

well since i got into my accident.. it looks like crap on the left side so i didn't get any far away pics

Hey J.Fuggi. Nice pix. Wanted to know what kind of paint you used for the valve cover (name, make, model, etc.) cuz I want to paint mine too when spring comes around. I like that flat, non-shiny, textured look. Kind of JDM style I guess.

And it would be easier to get a better judgement if we could see the whole engine. :)

i agree. but give me a day or two to get some more pics up. lazy is my middle name

Cool. Thanx. That's the EXACT color and type? Would I need to sand it down first (the valve cover) or should I just clean it up and paint it? I definitely want that textured look.

j.fuggi how did you do it?

Thanks again.

i didn't do it. it came on my car. but i've seen tutorials everywhere online to paint it.

Overall the engine looks good. Good job on everything. :D

very cool, looks almost like my engine bay! (except I havent painted my cover yet) Dont swap, love your dirty D! :D
