I like the idea of the sanded lettering. This looks really nice when done with satin finishes. In regards to the HT leads.. Perhaps something like this may work if you can't actually find affordable leads.. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/heatshrink.phpGoing to do mine oh so original red. Or maybe green. With either sanded off writing or painted white. Anyone know where i can get white HT leads that aren't the extortionate magnacore ones?
I always love to see finishes like that.If you got it blasted with walnut shell media or something similar it would take all the paint off and leave a lovely sheen to the ally .
Nice.. I may play with that idea in Photoshop to see how it looks... but not sure I have the patience to actually do it on the cover.Go for a red rising sun on a white background. that will look sick
Thinking of doing a bit of tidying up in the engine bay and would like to do something with the rocker covers. What are your thoughts on doing covers?
How hard is that to do? I found a pic of a Honda engine done that way.. very nice.i used to do wrinkle red covers with polished lettering on here...
