Lots of New Parts, But Not Enough Time to Install Them

We’ve been going out to the shop as much as possible the last couple days. Things are slowly coming together. I’m getting pretty excited! I picked up some Tein coilovers, new in box, but for a used price (love that).

On my 1995 Eagle Talon:

I was planning on just running KYB AGX’s and Eibach springs, but a local had the Teins for sale. Plus this will allow me to run Hoosiers, if I want, like on Adam’s 1993 Eagle Talon.

Without coilovers, you get this:

Oh and here’s a picture of my valve cover. Still deciding if I want to paint the letter red. I actually found some flat red paint at Autozone last night while looking for caliper paint. I’m all about anything flat

How did you paint that!
Powercoating?
I think you should leave the lettering silver.

Have to agree with Mindset the VC looks good just the way it is, but a nice flat red could get it a little more pop. Hoosiers are pure sex can't wait to see after photos if you end up getting them.

Just cleaned it up real good with degreaser and spray painted it. Put about five or six coats on then used a grinder to take the lettering off.

So you didn't sand it at all? Just degreaser? I'll be trying that soon!

 

[secongendsm]

No, no sanding prior to paint.

Hey what kind of paint did you use?
