Painted Grills and Engine Bay

[rocafella2032]

Well i got bored and used the paint left over from my dash to do my grills. Also here are some pics of a MONSTERRRR L36 lol :th_shakinghead2:

Looks good, what kind of paint did you use on those grills?

 

[rocafella2032]

Krylon fusion. I didn't even need to prep them. Just sprayed and dryed

 

[BwolfGT]

Nice, I've been wanting to paint mine that color. Where'd you pick up the paint?

 

[rocafella2032]

Walmart lol

 

[BwolfGT]

Nope, L36 is the 97-03 3800. L67 is the 97-03 Supercharged.

 

[gotboost3]

yes you're right the 04+ supercharged is the L32....my bad

 

[rocafella2032]

Yeah unfortunantly it's an L36 not an L67. I wish:th_shakinghead1:

i think a topswap is in order for you

 

[rocafella2032]

Trust me I've looked into it. It's too much though.

 

[BwolfGT]

You can find alot of the parts used for VERY cheap. Trust me im in the process and my budget is insanely tight.

 

[rocafella2032]

What about installation. I know nothing about engine work. If I did I would do the swap.

 

[blueguy]

Yeah you have to know a little bit...like tearing it down to the block

And it says in the title painted grilles AND ENGINE BAY? What did you paint in the engine bay?

 

[BwolfGT]

What about installation. I know nothing about engine work. If I did I would do the swap.

I know nothing about it, but I know alocal guy that's done it to his GP that's gunna help me out.

 

[rocafella2032]

It was like painted grills, and engine bay lol. All stock here but a drop in.

 

[BwolfGT]

You should build a 4" FWI for that thing, trust me it sounds sick on the N/A engine. You'll see some minor performance gains as well, plus you'll never have to change the air filter again.
Clean ride btw.

 

[rocafella2032]

I would but again I'm limited in knowladge. Also, idk how to get ride of that stock air box. It was a pain just to get a damn filter in it

 

[BwolfGT]

Its just some screws, I had to have GTPJOE help me with mine I wasn't sure how to do it either. If you know anyone that can help you theres a write-up in the how-to section on how to build the intake.
