Sooo thats what you were doing.... It looks pretty good bro :thumbs up. Btw don't you have to bake valve covers to make it look "wrinkled"? How'd you get your strut to finish like that?

but it'll wrinkle automatically when it dries.. i just used my heat gun to 'hurry it up'

yeah.. im just waiting till it completely dries. for some reason, the top surface kinda moves when i rub it to check if its dry. im most likely gonna put it back on there.

baking or using a heat gun with wrinkle paint is recommended, actually. letting it naturally dry will create larger, less attractive wrinkles. applying heat will allow the wrinkles to be smaller, and a bit more of a "tight" wrinkle (which is more of an OEM look)

so you did good, sir.

shit looks dope. also, most recommend a 24 wait before messing with anything wrinkle coated, because it does take a bit longer to cure. even when dry to the touch, underneath, its still quite fragile.

yeah. it took about 2-ish days to be fully dry. the top layer doesnt move around anymore when touched..

The VC looks sick cocoy!

i kinda wanna do it to mine too as well as the intake manifold, fuel rail, and brake booster.. but the intake matches the radiator.. so im stuck in the middle :( i also gotta paint the damn engine damper.. the blue just kills the engine bay imo...
