WOW! That does look really good. Could you give more details on how you did it? Removal how you taped off the different areas? OH, do you think that craft paint will hold up to the heat?

All I did was remove the liner, just pulled out (I think 15 of those push in clips) laid it flat then painted the whole thing with the paint for grills, including the edges, I went a little heavy were I was actually going to be using colors, they do soak in, the silver was real good (was a different brand than the other 2 colors)it omly took 1 coat but the others took about 3 or 4, it is kind of PIA, my wife came out to check on me to see how it was coming, she knows I dont care for painting, I told her this isn't exactly fun
, I think it should be fine with the heat,there are plenty of plastic pieces under the hood that do just fine, I guess time will tell though , Thanks everbody for your posts and comments Ozzie

NICE!!!
Considering that mine has been off the car since April or May and is only partially finished, Yours is AWESOME!!
It is a PITA to paint that thing... It's a SPONGE!! Maybe by spring...
