Ok, I guess it's time to reveal what I did. Long story short, a guy on a corvette forum was painting corvette FRCs and other parts of the engine bay in very HOT ways. Suddenly it hit me one day that it would look very unique in a Legend.

Couple notes...

#1-Engine bay is dirty
#2-The flash makes the leftover grease from the last cleaning look like coolant-it's not.
#3-I'll take better pics when the engine bay is clean


So without further ado......

FLAME ON!!!!!!!!! hehehehehehe

Again-the flash makes them look lighter-better pics soon.

Here are the pics I was sent when the work was done...

it was very nicely done. i give you that. not my style either. its not rice IMO cuz you didnt do it to add 5 hp to your car by adding the flames. some people would think those flames make the engine faster :retard: lol. good job though.
Thanks guys. Better pics of the engine bay and Legend in this thread:http://www.acura-legend.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=80629

Pat,

What did the airbrushing cost?

-Eric
About $240 plus shipping costs.

(My cost might have been less because I asked him about a price when he was doing a groupbuy on a Corvette forum, that I am I member of)

He said he'll charge me another $200 to do the Cold air box I ordered last night and the cover for the throttle body cables. (between the intake and coolant hose) After those 2 pieces I'll probably be done.

They are worth every penny, bro.
Money well spent...
