    Anyone paint their engine bay

    Anyone paint their engine bay with the engine still in it. I have the left side degreased and pulled apart. I'm thinking about masking bits off and spraying it with satin rustoleum black. Not sure how the right side would go?

    Your thoughts?

    That is a terrible idea. If you want to paint your engine bay take the engine out and do it properly. It will look like absolute shit otherwise. Is the rest of your car satin rustoleum black? No? Then why do you want to paint the engine bay that color it will look like ass! Do it right and paint it with the proper matching paint.
