RE: paint the bay?
Hey ive just recently painted my engine bay and all i did was grind down any rust then sand EVERYTHING with 60 grit sandpaper and then 3 coats of primer then 3 coats of paint ( i think it was a semi-gloss? i just know it was the colour i wanted). I'd post some pictures but im still trying to figure out how[&:]

it wasnt too bad down there but there was one section on the frame rail and a big chunk near the fenderwall passenger side corner which i cut out and put new pieces in. The paint was Dupli-colour spray paint(charcoal metallic) which i got from Canadian Tire. hopefully it holds up, i will find out then i start it next weekend if everything goes good.
