Default Gloss black primary pics
Need to get some powder work done this winter and I'm playing around with maybe doing a few more pieces gloss black.

Anyone with pics of a gloss primary or other gloss engine covers against a wrinkle engine post up!

Toasty, you and I are on the same path. Gloss black dash and covers have been on my mind for a while, the wrinkle looks so cheap to me....
