Default Painted parts finished. Pics !

Finally got everthig back together after check engine light and dead battery, replaced it with a new 1 it was 4 years old with 17500 miles on it. Would have finished sooner but had to play golf as its a sunny 70's in Arizona.







Enjoy!

Looks good. I'm in the process of doing the same thing to the yellow Z06. I like the difference the color makes under the hood.

You, my friend, have good simple taste; just like me. I just need to paint the coolant and washer containers and do something with the intake and I'm done.

Default Painted parts too

It's amazing what a bit of elbow grease and some paint will do. Here is the finished photo of my painted parts. I just got them reinstalled.
