Rising Sun On Engine

[lexdavis]

hi all

had abit of a brainwave last night

thought id try something a bit different the engine looks a bit bland in colour so thought all the plastic covers could be painted

but instead of just one colour was thinging of painting the jap rising sun over it.

thoughts on the matter would be nice

thanks

I know this is common mod with the honda and some of the toyota guys. I almost done it to my old mr2and i think it looks great if you use oil cap as the centre of the sun.

[lexdavis]

my plan was to have just half of the sun near the oil cap and go out across the other covers coz i thought the full sun has been done alot

ASI how did he fix it down

i have the same cover.....but i done it in polished metal

its held in place with the oil cap but only it you cut it perfect.
