Great! Thanks for the tips. I just want to do the battery and brake covers. If that turns out OK, I may try doing the V6.
I have some Solid Red paint left over from some body work. Do you think that would work? I'm hoping that there is nothing special about caliper paint for this job and it's just what you had laying around.
