Hi,
I know men are very visual so here are some pics of my painted engine compartment. I am going to detail suspension and replace steering bbox while engine is out.

Looks good. What do you plan to do with the hard edge to primer at the hood line? Just curious as I hope to do the same type procedure. :)

Paint blend

The car is being painted by a professional in my garage. He sanded the hard line flat and will use a special tape which allows blending with no hard line. He is gong to give me the name of the tape and how it is used. I will post it for you. I think it is made by Scotch.
