Engine Cover - Painting Ideas - Bobby - 01-03-2018

I have bought (of fleabay) a second engine cover just like the one below cirlced in Red

Reason I bought it was
1. It was cheap
2 As a painting project

I could do something similar to this

But has anyone got any better ideas ?

Thanks

Look go what you're already design Bobby.

I think you may need to have red pipework as well though.

The raising sun been done already

Howabout my dragon symbol?

Have you thought of using the 3M Di-Noc carbon wrap on it mate? would look very good with the colour of your motor? could also do your other covers to match then :thumbup1: will have a think on that Big Grin

I agree Chris although it is quite expensive for that stuff & I have never used it before so might end up costing me a fortune cause I am sure it would take me a few goes to get it right. Confusedad:
Rising sun would be good & I was considering doing that so might have a scroll through the web for more ideas.
Thanks guys:thumbup1:

Moley, hoping that Outlaw in Jap writing stickers might be coming to the forum soon :wink:

This looks good but would test my artistic skills Blush

If you need a nice shiney stainless symbol/logo to go on there let me know Big Grin

Now thats got me re-thinking mate, might get back to you about that.

Just remember it all depends on the size of the stainless plate, the bigger it is the more it will cost. If its something that other members might be interested in we could get a group buy going.................hmmmmm. I wonder if its worth doing a japanese text 'outlaw' plaque. Big Grin

Jason the Outlaw in S/s could be a good idea, how many would you need as a minimum to be worth your while. I have a cover to the left of the bay that is crying out for something like that :thumbup1:
