You should paint the valve covers white with the AMG logo in black, it would look SICK!!

valve covers will be done on the wrinkle paint as well... it would be to much white, but i thought about it though!! plus they wont look dirty with them being black..

Looks really good! Only think I personally would have done is the oil cap in the same color as the dip stick cover.

berti_00

good call on that, i kinda wanted to match the calipers and i have nothing else in RED on the car at all so i don't want to mix so many colors and make it look busy, you know what i mean...

Worth the wait

Painting the SC would really clean things up.

Nice work!

Worth the wait

It fits well on a white car.. Not sure about the yellow cap though, would have done that black myself..

Supercharger is not easy to take off, well unless your name is Shardul

Worth the wait

Wtf is wrong with my computer...lol.

Just paint with brush and high temp ceramic paint. Doesn't have to be perfect as the covers and purge tanks cover alot of the SC. Of course you have to remove those items again

Looks great!

Very nicely done. My brother did the plastic covers in white a few years ago on his E55 but never did the valve covers. It looks great in black to contrast the white plastic covers. Now that the car has been repainted we had the plastic covers painted Interlagos and looking to paint the valve covers in yellow to match the calipers. How tough of a project was doing the valve covers? Not really excited about having to tape off and X-acto the AMG logo lol.

That, is nice!
Are you planning to reinstall hood insulation? If not, be cautious of engine heat damaging the hood's top side paint...
