Default pics please-engine and interior console painted black
Please post pics of black painted engine and center console

I own a 2004 spiral grey coupe and want to add some bling under the hood and in the interior. I painted my fuel rail covers spiral grey but I'm not really into that too much. I want to paint the engine area with metallic black and the center console metallc black.
