Default Finally Complete... HydroGraphic Painted Engine Bay.. Enjoy
Special Thanks to members gerrb and Mrkenji for answering a few questions and getting ideas.

My original plan was to use the RMM engine cover but it didn't match so i decided to have the stock engine cover dipped instead.. I still have the RMM cover and may eventually color match that in the future..Hope this gives others ideas for there future projects. Enjoy

Worked Performed by ChromeFishCustoms here locally..

Very clean like the brushed rivets and the dipped core support. Tastefully done.
