ATTAK Z Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Love the Bay Mark ... how do you get the black plastic bit between the OEM hood stay and the radiator looking so clean ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopedmark Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 That's is a good question ATTACK Z and a lot of engine bay dressers think it's ok to leave it looking like sh# t, it seems to be covered in like a clear coat and as the cars have got older the coating seems to be very brittle, I have basically stripped all the coating off it so it now looks clean when I get around to it I want to paint it all Big job though and need a sustained period of warm weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Double post. While I'm here again though do you think you could maybe do a guide next time you paint something just to show us what's involved with getting a good fade between paint colours? just an idea.

Mopedmark Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Ok people here is what I have been up to since my last update, have managed to fit a pop charger ( thank you very much flyboy,) this in turn made me make a Perspex see through cover for it we even made the brackets out of Perspex I also vented it for more air flow, I added a temperature gauge also this is for me to keep a check on the heat under the cover.I painted the maff sensor tube and finished the throttle body off with purple flashing of paint. Now for the difficult bit, I have painted the radiator holder/front bracing,this is not for the inexperienced painted as it is hard work and will require proper paint air gun and compressor,this ended up being a full days work and the masking up is a big job, here are some pics 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizurd Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Was really impressed with all the work you've put into the car Mark when I saw it in North Wales. The spraying on the front engine bay cross member sounded like a total nightmare! Brilliant result though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
