What takes even more effort than the painting is posting all of the pictures online. At least you're being productive haha

I lasered engraved my ECU covers.

The key to lasering is using a laser.

I work for a laser company, so I get to mess with them. I wanted to laser etch a valve cover but I havent gotten around to it.

You can find them online, just search c02 laser engravers and a bunch will pop up. But they're hella expensive, the cheapest one we make is $10,000.

Laser etching looks nice. My car has full OEM interior though, it wouldn't make much sense to add a bunch of bling and cover it up with a kick panel.
