Haha thanks guys! Yea it really is rattle canned. I got the paint from autozone. It's a high temp grey metallic, and grey high temp primer for the base. Think it cost me around 12 bucks for everything.
Forgot to mention. 3m has this new painters tape called "edge lock" (i think this is right) It's pretty expensive, but really does hold a nice edge to keep paint out of the important spots. -------------------- |

DON'T BE LIKE ME!
I did this to my brand new oil pump yesterday (yes it was my fault)  What you are looking at is the bolt hole that holds the idler pulley on the oil pump housing. That grommet that is pressed in that my finger is pointing out came out of my old oil pump. The st205 motor that I sourced is a 94' model year, and I noticed this grommet in my old pump, so I pried it out and tried to press it into the new oil pump, which yielded that crack. I spoke with Aaron from Lithia Toyota, and had him look into this for me. Apparently there was an EPC that was released, which deletes this grommet in 95'. So now i'm faced with a 148$ oops for the oil pump assembly, and more (for all the gaskets, which were brand new that I cannot reuse.) As embarrassed as I am, I felt it necessary to share this with all of you so that you don't end up like me. I hope this helps someone in the long run. Cheers! -------------------- |
