Default First time painter: Engine bay prepped, primered, and sprayed.

Well I have always wanted to try it and finally said the hell with it and did. Here are the results...

Ready to spray primer:




Primered:




Painted and cleared:




What do you think? The exterior of the car will be more difficult as it has many areas that need prep and some patch work or welding. Anyway let me know what you think.
