    I finished up painting the engine compartment this weekend. Removing the cowl wasnt as bad as I thought it was going to be, it was pretty straight forward. I even put the original spot welds back in the cowl so you cant tell its been replaced.

    If anyone in the Tampa/St Pete area needs a cowl replaced let me know.

    Love detailed engine bays. They can make or break the total appearance of any car.

    Wow... you don't waste time! Clean enough to eat off of...

    Looks very straight and super clean... is that "Grabber Green" or Bright Lime?

    It Grabber Green. Originaly I bought the Bright Lime but when I got the paint home and looked at it, it just seemed too yellow so I went back and bought the Grabber Green.
