Re: Repainted engine bay - on the cheap!
The paint is holding up well so far. Grabbed a few pics my with Rebel T3I and 18-135mm lens I just got (still getting use to it, I'm what you would call an extreme noobie photographer). I haven't cleaned under the hood since winter storage yet, so it's not as good as it will be yet.

Nice work! Most people are frowned upon for doing spray paint jobs but you give it a good name! I gotta remember this.

Re: Repainted engine bay - on the cheap!
I'll be bringing the Camaro out of hibernation here soon. The paint is still holding up well! I haven't done any touch up to it so far. It's quite dusty after sitting this winter so I'll upload some more pictures after I get it cleaned up again, but here is a teaser picture of some goodies added this winter.

Looks great, I like everything but the Jegs heads. I've ordered 4 things from Jegs, all of which I had to send back because they were either defective or I was given a part I didn't order.

I normally don't order from them either, but the heads are way too good to pass up. Less than $1000 gets you a sick set of rebranded Profiler heads.
Re: Repainted engine bay - on the cheap!
Looks great for not having the engine out. Took everything off of mine, But I am doing a color change. One thing, take them bumpers off on the core support and clean the paint off. Took me like 1 1/2 hours to do mine with enamel reducer and some scraping. But it is the only flaw I can see on your bay. Nice job.
