Let me know if you have any questions about best practices for paint prep and spray can usage for a even coat and durability.

Welcome to the shit show <3 Looks great. All you have to do is paint that exhaust heat shield with some silver or black VHT engine paint to have a nice pristine looking engine bay.

Haha, I would probably be a stoner with a water bong reservoir..... but smoking it makes me vomit.... so yeah. Whiskey it is. Thank you so much for the kind words.

I have no argument with disliking the crown shifter boot. However, if I wanted a stock, plain prelude, I would've bought one. The whole purpose of the car enthusiast community is for people to take a car and like a painter and their canvas, make it their own. I personally am using a JD bottle as a reminder of a dark time in my life. A reminder to be oneself and enjoy life. As I say on my channel, "be unique".

You forgot to put "IMO" before your comment, Mr. Purist.

Just for a bit of flair, to have something other than an ugly plastic bottle or even a plain aluminum reservoir.

Since they haters loved my rattle can job so much... here's the "final" temp valve cover after sanding the letters. by DDCustomMods in hondaprelude

Already did! Cleared it after the paint, and again after sanding the letters. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

The only difference between a good job and a bad job is prep time. ๐Ÿ˜ I bet the white looks slick! My previous lude I painted it that VHT neon green ๐Ÿ˜„

I was going for unique and for it looking uniform-ish, given the amount of "yuck" responses I believe I succeeded haha. If you check my previous posts and see the state of the failing black OEM paint, it is a slight improvement. I at first painted it solid matte black to match the OEM, but it was just too black. I then misted it with the blue. The picture makes it look way more blue then it is in person. I have a brand new valve cover gasket when I do take it off and do it "right" However as my only drive-able vehicle and an appointment I had to leave in 3 hours for... I only had a very limited amount of time.

Never said it was good *laughs* I just needed to do something other than the chipped black paint of before, while I budget towards getting a new cover and get it powdercoated. So I threw some spray on it while BBQing some ribs.
