No not bored. This was something I wanted to do the first time I pop the hood of this car. I previously had an Accord that I did this to also. Just nevered had the time until today.

Did you do it yourself or have it done? Not a big fan of the orange but other colors would look cool.

It would look better if you had more red under the hood. What about painting the stock boxes and the black strip in the center of Engine Cover?
