Read the manual - Toyobaru reckon you do!

But out Toyota workshop manager believes that they ought to be able to do it without, with a bit of trial & error.

Sprayed mine over the weekend then ReSilvered the lettering and Boxer outline...I Dig it! With the Cusco Strut tower brace and AVO Intake Silicone Tubing (soon), I think it'll be just the right amount of color under the hood...

Good job! You must have some steady hands! What paints did you use?

Thanks man...I've been painting for a while...for this job I used good 'ole Rustoleum 2X Coat spray paint. It's an excellent paint for items with valleys and curves...Fills them in nice without overloading. I did my Belt Covers today too...I was bored and detailing under the hood...and went for it.

Personally, I like it better as is. Maybe if it wasn't such a small cover. I'll wait it out for a nice CF piece.
