Hi guys
I just completed number one on my winter project list. Painted the intercooler shroud to match the exterior.

No HTwo O

Very nice! I've thought about having this done.

Nice.... The previous owner of my car did the same thing. It looks much nicer than the standard black.

Your car is black, so what color is your shroud?

AC/911's

Thanks for reminding me, I need to do that to both of mine, Red to match calipers & seat belts.

Basal Skull

cool!

Bergamasco

The shroud is painted red. The colour is nice but the paint job could have been better on mine. Maybe next spring I will get it properly done.

love it. Mine was done by the PO and glad he had it done.

Nice! Did you have a body shop do it? Does it require heat resistant paint?

AC/911's

Always use a body shop unless your really good, 1 quart (minimum), 1 hour at most. Don't wanna wind up with bubbles from a can job unless your car's had paintwork(lol), then you could use caliper paint maybe. Guards red is Porsche color.

Love the paint but think the turbo logo looks naff just IMVHO (not that you asked for it )

LIKE!

Now my feelings have been hurt, how will I ever recover? That logo was actually a very important part of the process.

Bergamasco

"naff"???? I think the logo is fine but I would have made it much smaller. Perhaps you could repaint it once a season so that gradually all of the members here would be satisfied at least for a brief period of time.

Now I've got engine compartment hygiene envy - gotta up my game!
