Painted engine bays

Hmnnn next year when I finally get my arrrrse in gear next year and put together a build thread I'm thinking a respray or wrap is in order (I actually did it as a side job for extra cash for a long time)

One thing I do love on a built car is a nice tucked and clean engine bay. I'm thinking of doing this and spraying inside the bay White, to give it a clinical you-could-eat-your-dinner-off-it look.. Thoughts? And the external going matte OD..

Heres the effect I mean but swapped colours..

you going the full works with it?, tucked shaven and sprayed? its a hell of a lot to do and costs a lot but does look good

I did it myself on the 13' inside a removable fibreglass trunk. Took about a month with a wiring diagram hillbilly.gif

But yes, tucked, shaven and sprayed like a thai bride.. The only thing I'd leave would possibly be the ancillaries because I discovered early on that it was harder to hide them that it was to just buy fancy covers do things like the PS/Brake fluid reservoir

This time would be no different except I know what I was doing with the 13' haha
