The wife is out of town so I finally got some one on one time with the car, lol.
I painted the engine cover, front and rear bow ties with Krylon Fusion 2330 Sunbeam/Safety Yellow. I removed the front bow tie and engine guard for painting. I left the rear one on (the wife isn't sure if she want's it gone or not, so I compromised)
I also painted the sway bar under the hood, using VHT epoxy paint. I removed the sway bar for painting.
Thanks for letting me share.

I really love the look of those strut tower braces. I want to get one eventually.

Wow.. thanks for the tip on the paint & stock #..

It's probably the closest matching rattle can for our Yellow Camaro's that I've seen.

Yeah, it's almost an exact match. If painting over black I would suggest painting the part white first. The black underneath pulls the yellow to a more fluorescent tone. But for our intended purposes it's a match!
Thanks for the compliments.
