I painted my engine/coil covers this weekend. I bought a can of Magnetic Metallic base coat to match the car. I also scanned the coil covers into my computer and cut silver vinyl for the lettering and stripes. I used stainless socket head screws to attach the insert to the engine cover.




I'll get some installed pics tomorrow.

Looks fantastic! Perfect contrast. Do let us know how the paint holds up with engine temps.

That is all...

Thanks for the compliments. I'll update everyone on how the paint holds up over time.

Now, to do something about that hideous coolant tank...

Yer welcome. I just happen to have a 2016 magnetic GT ordered. :)

Replace the grenade? Mishimoto... well designed, well made. Polished aluminum or black. Mine will get here before my new ride does.

Coolant Expansion Tank

They should be shipping pre-orders by the end of this week. A few threads by the vendor w/pics here on 6g.

That is all...

I think, for now anyway, I'm going to paint the top half semi-gloss black.

Edit: I'm waiting on Canton to make a tank.

What do you guys think about some VHT black wrinkle paint on the coolant tank? And possibly the air tube? To match the wrinkle on the engine cover...
