Ok, ive been looking around the net a lot and havent found any sources for high temperature paint in various colors. I can find standard red black silver, and the domestic guys have colors like mopar orange and ford blue, etc.but im either going to paint the ka leopard print, so i need yellow, tan, black, maybe orange. if that doesnt fly i want to do a purple top ka with polished letters. i cant even find purple paint. or pink...so u pink sr guys fess up with where u found good colors of high temp paint and clearcoat...-Enzo

Ya man I already checked. If there was I'd be on it like flies on you-know-what.

I don't think Depot and places like that will mix up spray paint, only brush on stuff.

Its "My Name Is The LORD!" you douchebag. It's a quote from the bible, you cumfelching ****weasle. Yes, when quoted properly, it is a very cool line. However, when the quote is fouled up, you sound like a tool. You tool.

Quote »It's a quote from the bible, you cumfelching ****weasle.[/quote]WOW mikeG. Take a chill pill, you bible thumper. Maybe you should trade in your copy of "pulp fiction" for the "drift bible"...Anywayz...Enzo, when you paint your valve cover, do you need to remove the coat on the cover that exists? I'd kinda like to go metallic blue myself.

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."Samuel L. Jackson [Ezekiel 25:17] - Pulp Fiction aka my sig.

Man you should have gone with black/metalic blue/metalic purple leopard print. Now that would have looked cool.
