ive done a quick job of painting my engine cover at home with pressure pack cans, gloss black and narooma blue.
i like it, and was thinking bout getting it done by a paint shop for a much better finish. how much do you think it would cost? here is what i did!

looks okay. Agree with you on the finish. Get a proper panel shop to do it.

Get a can of silver and do the T i c k f o r d letters on the RHS, and the stripes on the LHS. Will stand out and look great IMHO.
Wish I had a few more of these to play with, I love mine how it is but I wouldnt mind a few more designs!
