I purchased the MGP covers in black. Then painted them in gold (three layers) using enamel paint, baked them in oven @200F for one hour, used black sharpies for lettering, and finally coated them with clear enamel spray (three layers).... ​

What you thank?

Not a fan of gold, but I know nothing. The workmanship is amazing though, nicely done!

Great job! Not feeling the color choice but always good to paint brake components like calipers, rotor hats, and dust shields.

I'm with everyone else. I like the original black a tad better than the gold. Nice looking car though.
