The rocker AND the manifold cover I painted with high temp paint.
You do get a smoother finish if you spray your rocker, but using high temp paint means you get a really deep enamel finish that laquer can't give you.
AND, the better you are the less obvious brush strokes u leave behind.

More chrome on the way but not quite as much as Saxo_vtr1234  .
Spec - R all they way.
Matt Westy - Did you do the rocker covers yourself?
S60tsy - How did you relocate the P/S Reservoir so successfully, mine is just lying on the wiring loom?
Sorry for all the questions........

I thought they were but S60tsy looked to be in a different place to mine.
I really like the painted covers I thought they'd been done professionally or you were a master of the rattle can.
