engine bay pics and inner fenders questions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*vegaschevy* · 09-28-2009, 11:46 PM

I see some people powdercoat the inner fenders and some paint them. DO some do both? powdercoat the underneath and paint the tops? Trying to figure out which way to go.

I think that the painted to match fenders looks good but black can make your motor stand out as well.....

pics and info on why you went that way please....

i dnt have any pics but i painted the underside of my Jimmy's fenders with black POR 15 and it has worked amazing! it takes a beating and them comes right back to a nice shiny black with just a little soap and water!
