I can see a built motor in the future lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of people have done this themselves. You can get decent results using 2k paints (primer, base, top coat). My brother and I did his completely DIY using rattle cans. Ended up costing around $200 in paint, it was all 2k (2 pack primer, base and top coat). I paid $250 for the rocker cover to be powder coated in a blue with chameleon top coat so all-in-all pretty great value. Thanks @biddie_fiddler Not a lot of difference in the end price and a lot less work for you if prep was included in price. I think I like it without the coil cover as well. You made the catch can arrangement very neat and engine bay looks smicko Edited 23/03/21 12:29 PM by Wyatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I needed to cut the hole for front breather a little bigger to fit the 90° AN fitting and I didn't have a step drill bit to get it done easily. Quick trip to bunnings sorted out the problem. Another issue I had was that the VCT connector plugs both sh*t the bed and broke. I ordered some new ones while the second rocker cover was getting powder coated. Fixed this before I put the coil cover back on. Easy job to de-pin the connectors. Took about 2min per connector to de-pin the old housing and re-pin the new ones.

Has a type C port on it! So futuristic and sh*t. Also has a voltmeter integrated. Not sure I like that part but overall fit and finish is amazing. Photo doesn't do it justice, looks like its not in straight but trust me I made sure it was square 🤣🤣 With the cover closed it looks almost factory, doesn't stick out like dogs balls. (I need a new shifter boot) Link to it for anyone curious 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
