my strut tower bar that used to be blue and looked really out of place is now the same color as my car (liqued grey)
same thing goes to the plate that used to be chrome at the back of my trunk






:( before


next im prob gonna do something with the valve cover (some guy does this on the side) and i'll probably need spark plug wire cover to hide them blue wires (so if anyone wanna sell one let me know)

laterz

Looks good Nik!

Come down to my place one night and I'll show you how to shine up that engine bay!

(I'm serious.)

Nice touch, same colour as my car.. I was curious, did you notice much of a difference with the strut bar? I've heard mixed reviews on whether or not they do much.. and I'm eager to get a few parts so long as they're actually beneficial ..

Anthony your offer has been accepted....im tired of cleaning that thing....but then again its winter/spring......nasty out

ex1z7: i can feel a small difference.....car is not that much wobbly on the road

u can find one for a good price on forums....i've seen some for $30
but im gonna keep mine now :D

Looks great Nik. Can't wait to see it in person. When do the Monday meets start up again? Also I need my Doc to give me the green light to start driving again.

Great work!!!

BTW the personalized plate suits you. :lol: JJ.

I see yours is hard to try keep clean to , thank god I got the paint seal on mine it helps keep it clean.

Looking Good Nik!

What did you use to paint it? Where'd you get the paint as well.. I wouldn't mind painting all the black parts in my engine bay the liquid grey of my exterior.. I think that'd look pretty cool :)

got it done professionaly at buddy's shop for a good price
he had to order the paint

Does anyone else know how I could get a hold of the paint..? I'd like to do it myself, and if I need help, I have a few buddies who are crafty with an air gun..

Start another thread on spray bombs. I know there are a few shops in the G.T.A. that will mix up spray cans of your paint colour for a good price.

I would imagine, if you had spray cans of your exact colour, painting parts would be a snap!

on the note:
to know what exect color od ur car is
open ur drivers door and look it up on the sticket

mine states: Ptn (Paint) CX (the actual color code)


it is cheapper to do it yourself......but im just a s*** t y painter period :o

good job :)

M&A Automotive in downtown Paris Ont will mix your OEM paint and put it in an Aerosol. However, you will need to wear a respirator with cartridges, and tell the guy there that you have the right mask and such, or he might not make it for you (it's VERY toxic)...
