Yeah with some high temp paint. Works better than wrapping them up. Also looks different.

Sad to see you ruined your engine bay. At least get the parts powdercoated or paint them correctly of a decent color..

Anyways, decent car. Fun swap, and the body seems to be in good shape. Get rid of the eBay projectors for some OEM black housings and it'll look a lot better.

You lie, you painted that **** while it was on the car. Paint doesn't do that.

i'm sorry but what were you thinking painting the header.... while still on the block.... and in baby blue.. green valve cover and then baby blue intake/strutbar and header? doesn't match at all man... besides that clean ride, you need to get rid of the riced out halo lights, lower it just a tad more and learn to do things proper.. haha
