Painted Engine Cover Monterey Blue
 

I was bored, so I had my engine cover painted. It's colored-matched to Nissan's Monterey Blue (RAE). Comments?

Prepped and sanded

Looks great I was thinking of trying the same thing, was also thinking about making the black a gloss black instead of just the flat black

Go for it. Engine bay bling.

Looks really good. They should've been paint matched from factory.

A buddy of mine works at a body shop, so he was able to get the paint for me. The color is a perfect match. Thanks for the comments.
