Hey Guys,

I thought I'd brighten up my engine compartment. Think it looks good.

Looks good! That should go well with the white firewall and inner fenders

You're right I guess it really does'nt go with any color. Lucky I've got the pearl white.

I like that!

What brand of paint did you use?

How long has it been on?

Any concerns with peeling, chiping or flaking?

What did you do to prep the engine cover prior to painting?

This one will really drive the wife crazy! I can hear it now:

"What are you doing now, and why would you paint a perfectly good engine cover?"

Seriously, I think it does look good, now I've got to go find a silver color to match the Murano.

Silver would probably look great too but you might have to change the color of the V6 3.5

I didn't paint it myself. Too complex. It's the Glacier Pearl of my MO. The body shop guys I know did it and as a matter of fact they had trouble with the primer reacting to the plastic. They had to try different primers. I have only had it on for a few days so I don't know if the paint will be damaged by the heat. They did a Dodge Hemi in White before with no problems so I think this should be OK but I'll keep you posted.
