Out of curiousity. And cos it gives me an idea

How much was it?
How long did it take?
Can she airbrush on any surface after preping?
Can there be any problems with heat of the engine?

£130 - £100 for airbrush £30 for laquer
took longer than expected cos she got an injury i think but should take up to a week+half/2weeks
she does anythin from rocker covers to whole cars to airplanes :laughing:
no heat probs at all!

thanks guys

Lot of money to spend on something that'll never be seen but it's a good job. I take it you're planning to make the rest of the engine look as good from the rest of your posts above?

Looks well.

once car is done i hope to put it in shows or wotever i dunno mite just keep it to myself

that looks well. Was actually planning on a lot of colour coordinating in my engine bay...to match the new strut brace.
Did you just take the cover off and send it to her?

Whats going on with the battery area?? Wires are dangling about everywhere. Is that the way Renault send them out of the factory??

Also....can you get me a job where ever you work...as you seem to get paid more than me-and your a student!!!
