Painted LS6 mani
Well my buddy from Washington came down to Oregon to hang out for the week and we decided to paint my mani and do an AC delete. My AC comp was shot and sounded like a machine gun when you turned it on...lol
Here are some of the pics.
I'm not in any of these so make fun of them all you want...lol

That looks really sharp. But the guys look disturbing! I think my IQ just dropped 5 points!

Hey goldz28
Man that engine compartment looks like you could eat off of it.
I can't even wax my car now, here in Michigan.
It is clean and covered up in my barn until spring.
When will that be ?????????
Nice CLEAN Camaro !
All the best to you.
Jess

I really like the way they look. The quality of the housings is not as good as I would like. I have broke both housings and gorilla glue ftmfw. To get them to fit better I used the stock brackets and used some washers to get the angle to work right. I'll get some pics of the lil gap when I have time. Try to this week.

I went to the auot parts (Napa) store an got 500* paint and 500* clear coat (Fred Myers). I can't remember the brand. Just make sure you use degreaser on the mani and hose it off real good. Then use some scotchbright to rough it up alil more. Put about 5 even coats of paint. Let dry for a couple of hours. Then put 5 coats of the clear coat. The clear when you first put it on will look kinda hazy, don't worry it goes away.
