Painted my first valve cover...

and did a few other things today..

Well i needed to replace my V/C gasket this weekend so I decided to go ahead and polish some things up and paint away.... everything seemed to be going great until i pulled the masking off and didnt cut away the paint from the tape lol. I had a good idea but seemed to **** it up a little....

not bad for your first cover. But if this is a show car like i suspect i would redo it and get it perfect. Clean work tho.

[J-ROCK]

404 bucky not found.

[RUFFIAN]

nice work. practice makes perfect.

[UpSideDownDesi]

good job trying to make it look like a GSR cover. White would have looked better.

hmm???

[carbon_crash]

hmm???

x2, should have primed it and let the paint dry before you removed the tape

[Alan®]

not bad for a first attempt. did you get a new intercooler

[Truegiant]

hella better than before regardless.. plus one for you

[FasTech]

think i would have chosen a different color white or red, but it looks pretty good for first timer.........

clayed the car and buffed it today.... the car is amazing looking. After it was painted it sat outside under a canopy for a year and the paint was very rough like there wasnt a clear coat.... talked to a guy that helped paint the car at the varsity meet and he said it was cleared... well after I buffed and clayed it, the paint is very smooth and glossy! :)

Now just waiting on all the parts i ordered to get in

oh an on the v/c.... didnt have anything to polish it except for a pad and aluminum polish.... 4 hours of sanding and hand polishing. i spent all day working on this and was PISSED when I pulled the tape off. I pulled it off just a little too fast lol

i can touch it up though... no biggie.
