OCDetails Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Someone mentioned the other day in a thread about good DIY projects about painting the yellow caps under the hood. That sounded like a good idea, so I did it. I used DupliColor color changing paint. Its a red/blue color that changes when you look at it at different angles. Kind of the color of the rest of the car at certian angles, so I figured it would look good. It definitely blends in better than before. That yellow was a little loud for the rest of the look in my opinion.

Guest *Jedimaster* Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Looks good. It kind of looks similar to the finish on the engine cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCDetails Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 I think I'll go back over the raised areas with a black marker before I clear coat them. I wanted to see if I liked em like this before I cleared them. I actually like them sort of non glossy. Maybe I'll skip the clear. _________________________________________ “Cleanliness becomes more important as godliness becomes more unlikely.” O C D E T A I L S .
