Very Nice.

Where did you get the Hood Pad Plate? It looks like it is metal, how did you get it to stay in place?

Thanks,

It's not a plate.
I spray painted it with app. 10 light coats, Very Fine sanding after app. 5 coats.

Some very nice ideas from other V-6 owners. Now, just have to wait to see what Showstopper brings to us

There are some cool looking covers on here. I want to do mine as well. I am thinking about orange in the middle and then chrome on the "valve cover" outer parts. I do not know if that would even be possible, but I think it would look rockin'.

showstopper · 01-15-2010, 09:21 PM

Just wanted to let everyone know we are still working on that v6 engine cover. Should have some pics up in the next few days.

I've seen Chrome paint at the auto stores, I don't see why you could not do that on the engine cover if you clear coat it

I did a quick search and Amazon adds the adhesion promoter(which I forgot about)
