I was just curious if anyone had any tips for painting inside the engine bay. It has been something that has had me curious as i was told before it helps protect parts and was easy to clean. Plus it looks nice.

if your gonna paint some plastic parts, i would suggest using bulldog primer first. its a promotor for plastic prep before you paint. i used it on my chin spoiler and its taken a beating and held up well. the guys a cdc suggested it to me. heres what the can looks like. i had my oreillys order it in. maybe dulicolor paint for your color match or contrasting colors for the parts.
