Question for those with custom painted engine covers. What kinda "prep work" is involved in this? Sanding, primer, etc...? Thanks in advance.

Here is mine. I'm not done with it obviously... But to see what's in store for this check out my build thread
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...acked-out.html

Sanded the center cover for a glossier "sheen" and left the outter covers textured then applied paint to all
