Paint!

The weather finally got a little nicer up here, and I've had a little bit of time away from school.

I was able to get my valve covers, and coil pack brackets painted today. Let me know what you think!

Sanded:

Primer:

Taped off:

Striped:

With brackets (didn't really like the stripe, so I got rid of it):

From the looks of it yours dont have that much casting marks. If you would have done those with automotive paint they would of looked sick.

Looks good Adam.

Do you think the coil packs and valve covers will collide.. You can not see them seperated.... Or are you re painting the brackets????

Was the pass side valve cover front breather tube re welded on? and why is there a tube coming out of the rear of the drivers side valve cover

I also painted the brackets. They will match my intake, along with many other things in the engine bay.

I believe these are LS2 covers. I'm pretty sure this is how they came. They force me to use the LS6 PCV system.
