The real deal bro...My boy said $650 for anyone else.That would include valve covers and intake.You would ofcourse have to bring the car without a motor in it though..haha

damn. i actually paint cars at work (well used to)...... painted my engine bay last year with the "real deal", but got some over spray on it when i did the exterior job.

with the car apart for a new build this year, im redoing the engine bay, and a rattle can job would be oh so much easier. lol. but **** hack jobs.

anyway, not to hijack. looks good
