Yeah i'm thinking i'll do it myself. Does it need to be a high temp paint?

I really like the covers I've seen people do here. Looking forward to seeing your results. Of course a project report and in progress pics are always welcome around here, as well as pics of the finished product. :D

Thinking of painting my engine cover and would like to see what unique ideas are out there.I am leaning towards air brushing realistic flames (probably blue with skulls shadowed). I have done a few r/c bodies which is much harder because it is painted in reverse so I would like to try on my engine cover.I am really looking for some ideas so show me what is out there please??? thanks :4-dontknow:

That looks awesome! I have a guy locally who can do hydro dipping. I've really thought about having him do my engine cover very similar to that exact pattern. I think that I will do it in reverse though. Use white as the base color and then do black skulls.
