I decided to give the Engine Bay a different look, so I started with the Strut
Tower brace and Diagonal Braces. Makes things stand out more in the
compartment.
 |
Remove 4 nuts (2 on each side) with an 13mm wrench,
and grasp the brace with 2 arms and pull upward. |
 |
When installing or removing the brace, make note of the
FRT,
lettering and Arrow.
The arrow should be pointing towards
the headlights of the Vehicle. |
 |
I first used 400 sandpaper to sand down the black paint on
the
braces, then I put 2 coats of primer and sanded with 600. Then pick
your color and put 2 or 3 coats of it and let dry about an hour.
Lastly put 2 coats of Engine Enamel and let dry over night. |
 |
Right diagonal brace being painted. |
 |
Shorter indicated screws screw into the bottom on the
brace. |
 |
Longer Indicated screw, screws into the top part
of the brace. Follow the same procedures for the
opposite side. |
 |
The 1st part of the project is finally finished.
I still need to paint the 2 motor mounts and paint
the screws
bright yellow. |
