Engine Covers
« on: 13 February 2018, 21:49 »
Hi all. Decided to spruce up my engine covers a little. I used plastic primer, followed by Audi phantom black then clear coat. I applied several coats with plenty of time in between. I’m pleased with the result and shall do the fuse box next. I also intend to get some racingline caps for the oil etc.

Looks great, but I fear it will peel...

Now there’s the rub.

Hope not looks great, give us a report back after a few months. I’d love to do the same.

I haven't any pictures of them on yet as I'm going to wait until the weekend to ensure they are fully cured. I'll post some pics then. I hope it doesn't peel but I'll keep an eye on it and come back with the results :)
