Painted my front cover
Rustoleum Textured black, after cleaning it I roughd it up with sandpaper and then primed/painted it.



What do you think?

What do you think?
How hot do the L's blocks get??? Is the heat going to affect the paint? Looks really good! Are you going to do any other pieces?

I painted mine also with Rustoleum. No issues with peeling here.

HI!... Looks good. When I built my "BUILT" 5.4 I decided to get my front cover Ceramic Coated along with my entire upper intake manifold.
