Can you post a pic under normal lighting, etc.

and how do you like it?

Curious to know the actual shade of the blue....not really sure from the google images only

I've seen one in person, although I dont have a pic, that picture is actually quite close. It might look a little lighter under normal light.

Does it look like it was "painted" or does it look really clean like it was "manufactured" blue. Trying to see if it appears cheapy or if one can tell its a factory ordered part. Kinda want to avoid painting one myself but dont want to order one and in the end it still looks like I painted it myself lol

Looked great. Honestly the guy may have plasti-dipped it, but I didnt look that close. Looked oem to me.

I am planning on getting the blue engine cover and then spraying the strut tower braces the same blue to really make the engine pop. Any recommendations? Cant really afford the cusco blue ones like you have

Yea it's actually pretty easy, just cut a strip of tape to go over the Boxer emblem then use a razor or something to cut out tape around the D4S letters and spray a couple of light layers.

All in all it was about 30-45 minutes to do with only 10ish of it to paint.

I actually used sand paper and some water.
