I've read about this on the FAQ but I wanted to a get long-term report from someone who has done this.
I removed my engine cover this past weekend for the hell of it. The car has been getting so much more attention that it's hard to put it back on. However, the coolant bottle destroys the effect.
I noticed in the FAQ that people recommend using a acrylic paint because it's flexible. However I don't know of a plastic paint that can withstand temperatures above 200 degrees. What have you used? I want to go dark grey, so that it blends in. I'm aware that Dali has a cool replacement bottle, but I don't want to spend $150 if I don't have to.
