    Hey OP -- I just noticed

    Did you also paint your RHS fuse panel cover white as well?

    Looks good...

    Good times.

    Looks nice. I thought about doing it in red and grey for my PBM V6.
    If FL G82 thinks an unpainted engine cover looks cute I wonder what he would think about this. If it had a CAI on it he might go blind.

    (FL-- just kidding around. Don't go postal.)

    I didn't want anything that was too much trouble. Just a little red along with the G8 decal on the rad cover. Painted the battery connect the same color red.
