      Fog Lamp switch installed

      Figured I let the paint dry enough to assemble and install the fog lamp switch into the car so I went for it. Results....









      As you can see I did not bother purchasing the SEM sand beige paint. I priced it out and it would have cost me nearly 50 bucks. I just couldn't justify it because the piece was so little to paint in the first place. I like the slight contrast this paint produces.

                      Here are the aluminum wire separators....with some slight modification...CHOPAGE!

                      Had the fabricators at work chop a bit off so all can clear the fuel line as well as the compressor bracket. Had to drill and tap as well as counter sink a new hole because the preexisting screw location was cut off.



                      Here you can see one side scuffed and ready for engine primer and paint etc...



                      The pieces will be painted in the aluminum color I have in my engine bay already. The four collective allen headed screws will be painted in low gloss black.

                      Tuesday morning I am shooting for painting them at the shop.

                                Dave rolls big. Looks good! I think it's a good idea you decided to paint them, that way you wont have to worry about polishing them every so often. I'm looking forward to seeing what they look like installed!
