Wow, good turn around of the car. Props to that, looks like it was a lot of fun.
But why not paint the engine bay?

they taped it. i made them remove the lip and paint the whole bumper.
the didnt paint the lip after that... but i think i like it better black.. it sorta "makes" the front end.

 

I hope you paint the grill back to black though.

 

its gonna look good

 

good luck with the project!

grill is white.

contrary to the majority of honda tech's preference, i like it better white.
