Nice! Loving the red! Really adds something to the Engine bay. Ever think of doing the black covers for the computer and fuse box?

So did you remove it and spray paint it with a "high heat" resistant paint?

I remove it and sand it with diiferent grit of paper, after that I spray it with a aluminium primer and put 3 coat of VHT red caliper paint, let dry all night and install it the next day, you dont have to purchase a new cover gasket, this one is in rubber and can be re-install
