    Try this mate,i covered the lettering in vaseline and swiped off once sprayed!.or once paint is dry,just use a blade to pick it off,comes off easy.I would say tho,sand down the lettering etc first tho.

    My Engine bay revamp!

    Paint wise i just used paint from ecp mate.But you can use any spray paint really tho if you want a different colour,maybe use Halfords paint as they have more of a choice?,depends what colour scheme your after.More about the prep of it i guess,like making the surface clean for the paint to stick.

    My Engine bay revamp!

    Just block the spark plug holes mate or if you have an old set of ht leads about stick them on as wont matter if you get paint on them or damaged.
