This thread may almost be at an end as my freshly dipped scuttle arrived this afternoon. Just like the other parts I've had dipped, the quality of the finish is exceptional.
Couple of pics under lights to highlight the gold weave in the pattern:
Couldn't wait to get it fitted.....
And so that's it....hopefully nothing else will need dipping.
Here's THE final pic of how the engine bay looks now:

That looks ******* awesome!! lol .... wiper arms next? lol
you thought about painting the mounts satin black for the engine stabilizer and gloss black bolts.
you also need to spin your oil cap around so the writing is inline with what on the engine cover. i do it in my car. no idea why. i even do it with the fake fag lighter on dash. the righting has to be straight
