Default Rhino Line/Line-X Engine Bay?

Wondering if this would look good? Has anyone done it? I would do it after my car get's painted, but I'm trying to decide whether to spend the extra on painting my bay, spray paint, or rhino line it. I would probably use the can, since the idea of rhino lining my bay is to save monay.

:flame suit on:

Opinions?

no no no do not rhino line your engine bay

first off the stuff is really heavy

its rubberized and your engine bay is really hot, so it will never harden it will always be soft, and will probably give off fumes


and it looks freakin stupid, why would you want think textured rubber coating in your engine bay?

i get the idea people want to do things that are different and whatever, but it has to be a good idea, rhino lining your engine bay is just stupid

Well it would be semi-shaved and wire tucked. Just wanted to see what people thought before I try it. Lol.

i would do it the same color as the car since you plan on shaving the bay and doing a wiretuck; it'd be pointless to spend all that time to shave the bay only to cover it up with ugly bedliner

Everytime I enter a thread and I see your username I already know right off the bat, that it's going to be a negative comment

On the side note, that bay looks nice and as for rhino liner, don't do it
