Are the pieces just painted, or are they just replaced with different colored plastics for things like the fuse box cover, etc.?

I just painted mine with high heat engine paint and for the hoses you can get those hose cover kits at most parts stores as with the paint.

Check my profile. That's kind of an old pic and its changed a little, but you get the point.
I painted my header w/ high heat paint and its holdin up fine, so I'm sure his heat shield has no prblms. This post has been edited by subsolo_21: Jun 22, 2004 - 2:54 PM |

Yeah mine is fine, Ive had it painted that color for a long time so it is starting to discolor a little bit from the constant heat.

last time i used degreaser and rinsed it off, some bad stuff happened. although i've done it at least once a year since i've owned the car. weird.
i guess there was a slight gap in between the plug wire and the cylinder...i pulled out a plug, and it was soaked. NOT fun trying to figure out what it was while my car was shaking and not driving over 35mph...hahaha. |
