Sorry 4 the big pic's .. Yeah The whole car will be a the engine bay color by the end of summer. I wanted to get the bay painted b4 I dropped the b18c. That's all The color is a totally different red, I was gonna go a charcoal but I like red,.. it's just my taste. Anyway here's a closer one of the engine bay, still shadowed HP digital camera from 00' sux ***.

how easy is it to paint the engine bay? do you have to take of all the pipes etc or just unhook them and leave them dangling? hows it done? Im doing mine soon so would like to know. Thanks

Me and my boy took out everything except the brake booster and the ac lines.. Some wiring too. I taped everything off perfect and my boy sprayed it. I'll have some pics up at the end of the week. Got the new Digi on the way. Anyway engine bay came out sweet.
