    are the zip-ties in the engine bay necessary? If you do need them for some reason, switch to black zip ties and trim the ends off

    Ur heat shield painting turned out better than mine

    Here is a bit of constructive criticism. Your center console is going to peel. It looks like the prep work was very minimal. If you want the paint job to last, you need to prep better.


    Also, on the e-brake handle, did you use a flexible paint agent since the handle is a softer material, or did you just shoot it with the same type of paint as the rest of the console?



    Your heat shield is going to fade. Unless you bought header paint(VHT, POR 20) it will look bad.


    Just some opinions
