I took the engine cover off my GS some time ago, but have been considering putting it back on, but I've also been considering 'modifying it' in some way before re-installing it. I thought maybe painting it might be one idea.

Perhaps I could put lights on it. Although maybe they'd melt in the heat

What do you think?

 

with silver , i think painted silver would look really good and mayb a small piece around it aswell, like say the fuse cover & ecu cover...or u could have it wrapped in CF with some pieces around it aswell, pm TTPimp he has a place that does it...i'm not sure what else u could really do, mayb paint it silver and have a thick stipe come down from top 2 bottom on the left side in CF, that would like nice too.. just a couple of things u could do...

 

cf the engine cover and other parts too talk to tturbopimp about it!

 

i had all execpt that cover done by tturbopimp in carbon fiber , the quality of the work and attention to detail is breathtaking .. price is very reasonable considering the quality you should see by airbox cover they did , all the angles and curvatures was incredible.. i have more to come for custom inside the engine bay


but worth considering heres a pic of the last iece they did for me

 

Real nice lfl - thanks!

Got me thinking now...

 

give it to me

 

Bit,

I was planning on doing this with mine but changed my mind (so now you can do it )

An international member in Venezuela used to have the center of his painted, IMO thought it looked great.

 

wow that's very nice! it looks like the new sc430 engine cover!

 

or you could flush mount a couple of 7" monitors into it.

J/K obviously. Although I DID see an integra 2 Hot Import Daze last summer that had this done.

In all seriousness, I say go with CF!!!!

 

Ok please don't flame me for my filthy engine bay it has been raining here for days, but here is what I just recently did. Ihad the parts painted to match my car. Nothing to crazy just something nice. DGOT20's also did this before me lol.




I have to have the timing belt cover still done just don't have time to leave my car right now and can't drive with the timing belt cover missing.

 

ok.. Im going to have my engine pieces painted as well. what type of paint must they use..*(regular car paint?) or something with Temperature control in it?

Thanks

*also what pieces can be painted?
