Well today i painted 2 calipers, I only have one jack so i had to do them one at a time....and a friend came over and started on my cylinder head and its painted and off, and looks so nice.
Also removed the alarm system in it, as there was one but i dont have the remote or anything, So ++++ FOR WEIGHT REDUCTION!!! aahha. and some leaves where in there as well, MORE WEIGHTTT REDUCTION!!!
As i was putting on the cylinder head cover, i scratched it, so i had to redo it...thats why theres no picture of finished product, and go ahead make fun of me for painting things. I think it looks really nice with the color.

Drift Nasty.
Team Awesome.
My friend was doing valve seal replacement on his cobra motor, and dropped one of the b bolts down an oil drain line in the head. It didn't come down into the oil pan, so he had to pull the motor and tear it apart to find the bolt. what a nightmare. plus the cobra motor went into a v6 mustang body.

no offense but you're going about it wrong. there's no reason to paint things just because you want to. that money should be spent on either replacing old worn out parts such as belts,hoses,bushings and so forth. or actual performance parts like intake, exhaust, cams,flywheel, and so on.
after all is said and done you'll be happier knowing that all you're work was actually worth the time and effort that went into your car.
