YEP, it's my heat shield + other random crap. :biggrin:
I used Duplicolor DE 1612 Gray Engine Primer, and DE 1635 Ford Semi-Gloss Black.
Obvioulsy this is the only thing on my car which has anything at all to do with ford lol! I cant wait for it to dry totally so I can put it on my car! I gotta wait till around 10:15 for the heat shield, and prob 11:15 for random crap. What do you guys think of it?

I know the horns look kinda like poo, but before they looked like a toxic waste plant LOL.

i hope your horns still work,
i took mine off and sprayed them and they didnt work, that set me back 115$ from honda.
i hope you didnt move that screw or remove the caulk like stuff on the back, get on your way to honda if you did :biggrin:

Ahh I hope so! I haven't had a chance to test them yet, but all I did was spray the front, I didn't touch the back of them! I found a leaf inside one of them and they were working before I removed them so I dont think some paint will hurt them. If theyre messed up I'll just get some from advanced (or wherever you get them from) Im on the cheap here no $$ to spend on horns LOL. I had $30 in my bank account today; before I bought the paint ;)

has anyone ever done a horn swap lol. i can imagine seein that under lists of mods. ha. "s2000 custom mounted horn"... maybe someone should. no offense but honda horns tend to sound pretty gay. so gay it starts to become cool again.
