Default Engine Cover?

What paint should i use to paint my engine cover? Plastic paint or High temperature paint?

If you have done this i would appreciate if you would post some pics along with what paint you used?

I did mine and I'm kind of kicking myself in the ***. It looks good until you get up close. I would recommend taking it to a body shop and having them do it. That way they can match it to your exterior and get a professional look.

unless you do a lot of car shows, there's no need to paint your engine cover. rarely do you pop your hood everyday i'm assuming. if anything, go with the CF engine cover if you don't have an aftermarket plenum or spacer, otherwise, it won't fit in that case.
