ionly used halfords satin paint on the manifold...so far no burnage! but we'll see lol was okay on the valver and that was direct to rocker cover

I take it you took the inlet off to paint it, hard job?

 

[banderson]

easy job mate! couple of sensors to pull out, a pipe, and 11 bolts

 

[twellsie]

that looks excelent, did you paint the engine cover with rattle cans?

 

[banderson]

yeah mate, just halfords rattle cans (mini chilli red to be specific)

 

[twellsie]

[jims gems]

hi mate where did you get the stickers for the cover

 

[hollandcup]

Nice job!

 

[banderson]

Cheers mate

I got the sticker from eBay but I think it's a member off the forum that makes them, and gives cliosport discount! (that I didn't take advantage of )

 

[jims gems]
