+1 on the engine covers, what method did u use to paint them?

I had a good friend that owns a body shop do them, he had to use a special primer to get them to be smooth because they are kind of a rough finish from the factory. (not sure what kind of primer though). Once the primer was applied sanded it down and sprayed them with yellow blaze then a clear coat.:beer:

Coil covers are very well done - great accent. I will reserve comment on the caliper covers as I follow the rule - its your car, make it as YOU appreciate.

Enjoy the ride.

We need a close up of the covers are they rice?
They're far from rice, the stock calipers were a bright sliver and just didn't match the car. Painting the covers a factory color should not be considered rice maybe leaving them red or painting them blue with spray paint may be considered "rice"....

I will work on close up pics of them
