I painted my radiator cover today. I can't tell you how thrilled I am with the way they turned out. Last week I criticized myself with the way the coil covers turned out. I feel so much better and it was real easy. I thought about going the stainless route but I think I'm going to stick with this. It looks so much better than the stock black.

That really looks good!

Probably a dumb question... but did you use a spray can or spray gun?

I used a aerosol can that has a bottle hooked to the bottom of it. You pour whatever liquid you want in the bottle and spray. The can is usually good to spray about 16 ounces. That is def the way to go for us inexperienced ones!

Dan,

Is this something you could use to paint other things like... say.... in-wall speakers grilles and such? If so, I want to talk with you about this. I have in-wall speakers that I want to paint the same color as the wall.

LOL! Yeah, I have been wanting more horsepower lately. I might have to add some stickers!

They don't do anything for torque though.
