ToMitz Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 The beginnings of priming and sanding the engine bay for fresh paint. Tossing up whether I keep the stock green under here or something different. Any suggestions what colour the engine bay might suit? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
