Not if you want a straight clean line. Check out dipyourcar.com it's on there.

Has anyone tried Plasti-dipping the engine cover?

Really want to dip the sliver part red but nervous about the heat.

On the dip your car website no one had tried it and I found out the dip is rated up to 320 degrees.

Not sure how hot the engine cover gets.....

Hopefully someone here is braver than I am.

It gets really hot under the hood especially in the summer time. Just paint your engine cover like I did. It's so much better-looking and can withstand the heat.
