Did you sand the DOD/AFM lettering off the engine cover before you painted it?

Also I noticed that trim on your intake is peeling off as mine, Buff and some others did!!
This what me and Buff Did. We took the weather stripping from the cowl & lined it up on the intake!! Looks perfect & will not rip off! You must recrimp it back on! But thats if you are really particular about issues of the trim. I later ordered an additional piece to line the cowl back on! I'm sure it kept those temps down(while it was off) but I was a little afraid of what could creep in!
