Finally painted the throttle body cover. It came black on black with raised lettering so you couldn't really see it. I didn't know how to approach this, my first thought was putt some spray paint on a paper plate and sandwich that on my cover to transfer the paint, but then I couldn't multi color the ford logo without extreme frustration. Then I decided I have some paint brushed so I put some spray paint on a plate and brushed the paint on. Didn't turn out too good, but I have no other ideas lol. I used the high temp spray paint, and I don't know if they make high temp paint on acrylic paint. Anyone have any ideas?
You can use regular spray paint on that I did on 2 of my trucks and it never faded

My problem is applying it. I tried masking it off with painters tape and an exacto knife and that turned out to be a mess, so I had to take all the paint off again and use the paint brush which as you can see blotted badly lol.

You can see how I did with the ford lettering blue, the oval around ford white, and the 4.6L red. the red part is easy to mask off, the oval is difficult but doable, and the ford lettering is next to impossible with the blade I have.
Well since I have to put a new motor in my truck, I shelled out the money for headers as well. I got Hedman headers from summit which will be here tomorrow or the next day then the new motor will
be going in.
