Painted the engine bay

[dartslantsix]

In preparation for installing the new hemi, I decided to paint the engine bay. I knew if I installed the engine first, I'd probably never paint the bay.
Anyway, this is my first "big boy" paint job and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Color is "Vivid Blue Pearl" came on Chrysler 200's.

Looks good! Prepping and painting that is a pain in the you know what. I bit the bullet and did the same as you since I knew I'd never pull the engine back out to do it later.

When I saw the gray primer photo I thought blue that looks like whale gray, then I scrolled more. Love the color, I see it as electric blue, one of my all time favorites

Me too. Blue is one nice looking color.

Yes, the plan is to paint the rest of the car this color with a metallic gun metal grey stripe.
