since i've painted my car a different color than factory, how should i go about getting the engine bay repainted? would i have to pull the motor then tow the car to a painter or what? i'm really clueless on the subject tho its probably an easy answer. i doubt a bodyshop would both pull and paint the engine bay......

You could just mask off all the engine and go at it with spray paint, I did mine like that..just takes time and patience, paint the bay with matching color and then just use your imagination. You can check mine out at

Mine was disgusting , and finished up looking really really good..lots of cleaning, taping off and patience.
