what color paint is that i love it!

the red is Dupli-color Car SUV and Truck paint and the color is Metallic Cherry Red, as for the SLP Box and the V6 and 3800 it is Also Dupli-Color Car, SUV, and Truck Paint and that is Metallic Gunmetal Grey. Got it at the local Advance Autoparts in the Clearance bin.
 


looks good, i need to redo mine, since my paintjob plan has changed and blue just wouldnt look right with it anymore
 


is that just car paint and engine heat paint? love it and want to do it, also howd you sand it down, wet sand with what grit?

I wanted to keep the texture so I actually didn't sand it, however for painting plastics like this its a good idead to wash the part in Bleach and water to make sure there's no grease or anything of the sort... and its regular var paint the cover doesn't get hot enough to damage that paint
 
I did not realize that thanks for that tip. I actually tried to buy red paint to match the car but its a shade or two off, so i decided to go a different route and paint the cover black since my struts are back as well, and keep the letters silver and get a chrome CAI. thought it might look cool. And the one piece headlights, where did you get em and their angel eyes right? hows the night vision on those?
 
not too bad, I need to adjust them a little more yet, they are a little low and I got them off of eBay and yes they are halos
