I love it that 90% of the people on here ripping on the engine bay more than likely still have stock oil caked and cosmoline crusted engine bays themselves.

barf, and double barf, for everyone thinking she is doing this swap ALL on her own.

:yawn:

Amount of work being done is inversely proportional to how clean you are :p

Still, at least the interest is there.

I also don't like it. whatevs.

The bay looks terrible, seems like very minimal work was put into prep work and you just blasted the whole thing with paint. Odd choice of color too but hey whatever, your car.

Makes me sad when people don't spend the time where its really needed :(

[Wh33lhop]

I really appreciate your concern, I do understand its a very loud color but it what I chose to be different in my liking. If I don't like it it's my fault, no one else to blame. I haven't because I am waiting for the clear coat to dry, once that's dried I'll post up another picture.

Thank you!
Jay.

I wouldn't call it "concern" or even much of a vested interest on my part, I am just pointing out that if you had a penis, people would not think your choice in color was so awesome. You can do whatever you want to your car, that is your prerogative; if you post it on the internet, you are going to get opinions and you may not like them.

...I still think it looks horrible.

[JayyE30]

No, but we would be doing you a disservice if we all told you it looks "awesome" and "unique" like a bunch of testosterone-fueled sheep, and you didn't figure out it looked like shit until you put the motor back in and it was no longer easy to reverse.

This is a problem you will be facing for most of your younger years--attraction-fueled validation. You should thank the people who are honest with you. In my opinion, turquoise looks horrible and doesn't belong on any car any more than hot pink. There are better, more subtle ways of making your car unique.

Got any "after" pics of the bay? Did you mask anything off?

Excellent work! Plus, I love seeing people get pissed off because of something you decided to do to YOUR car. Next they'll be yelling at you for not using the tools they use. Keep it up!

lol i know
like

your car used to be worth anywhere from 3-6 k, now with the engine bay painted blue you lowered the originality value to a bag of RICE.

he's going yell at me for not eating the same bag of rice he's eating.

If I were going to draw Obama's butt on it , no one can stop me.
