Custom Laser Engraved Engine Cover

Alright so hopefully this doesn't look stupid haha. I run a laser engraving company with my dad and decided to take off the engine cover and engrave "exsequor" with the mazda font on it.

I am going to go ahead and do some more parts now while I'm at it, cuz It's pretty nifty and can be filled in with high gloss airbrush paint / whatever.

Looks very nice, little bit of paint carefully applied and you will have a cool unique cover.

I just need to find someone to fill it with high gloss paint and then ill do some cool *** blue theme. It's engraved prolly 3-4mm deep so you could easily tell the difference if it was painted properly with high gloss winning blue.

lookin' good. I'm sure the 'exsquor' will confuse some people but paint it up and you'll be styling!

Haha well I wanted it to be persoanlized. I might put a rotor triangle below where the renesis is, and then get it painted. I just need to find a pro. A lot of my interior is custom painted WB but parts of it are chipping so I just need to get the whole thing redone.

talk to Vice^Grip, he knows a guy who does custom air brush painting. The paint is high temp so it'll withstand the abuse
