Default Build 2011 Including Paint, Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl

Next week me and my boss will be picking my car up and be bringing it to one of our shops. The car will not have a engine in it so it will just be getting the engine bay done, what i have planned is to smooth out lines and fill holes within the bay. Upon that does anyone have any ideas they think that will look good? Thanks!!

Thanks Guys! My Boss is excited to see the finished product too so he's been putting it on my to do list but i keep getting hung up on other stuff. I am hoping to have it back home this weekend with a completely painted engine bay so i can throw my build back into it.
