I like the mural, does RPI make that as well? I have the V6 so they need to make an engine cover for us as well!

I like the engine cover and the rail covers, but think the rest is kind of overkill. And at $420 just for those two is a little too rich for my blood! But I'm sure you could probably find someone local that could do them for half that, if not less.

And to answer the question above, yes the airbrush is available. For nearly $400!!!

I like the body color accents, looks real good. If I could find Guard metallic paint or accessories I'd do the same thing.

I agree it's over kill. I am getting a local shop to hydrodip my engine cover and rail covers in a carbon fiber print. But the print will have a metallic look to it to look more like real carbon fiber.

FYI for you guys that want to paint your under hood stuff body color, pretty easy to do. First determine if you have the skills to remove said parts. Go to your local auto paint store and purchase a plastic primer or adhesion promoter(bulldog). Have them mix you a pint of base color to match your car. You'll need reducer also. They have aerosol kits that you can put your reduced color in and spray like a rattle can. Then get a 2k clear (rattle can) to top coat. The 2k clear is catalyzed and is as durable as the exterior paint on your car. I painted my valve covers on my 3V this way and they are still perfect. If you can paint well with a rattle can you can do this. For less than $100 you can get all the supplies and have at it. The guys that sell this paint are very helpful if you ask a question. As far as the pony mural, now takes skill!!
