Why didn't you paint your airbox?

I'm sure you have already thought of this, but a nice finishing touch would be to paint the audi symbol on th engine cover as well. Oh and maybe the blue water cap too. Looks sweet though, more of a match than last time!

Looks like you got carried away and decided to paint more then the engine covers. Nice touch!

I just repainted that black and put a few nice shiney coats of clear on it.

BTW I could that as a engine cover even though its really not covering the engine. [8D]

I looks like you missed with the spray can when you were painting the covers. Prolly looks better once it's dry and in person.
