Was bored, so went and got some paint and decided to paint my engine cover. Was just wandering what people thought of it!

Just need to flat it, Laquer it and polish it up first. Trying not to rush it and make a complete mess of it

Put on 2 coats of the grey around the area is grey, then 2 coats of black. Finished it off with 3 coats of laquer and then gave it a good polishing up

Was tempted to do it a daft colour, But then thought sod that
