so i was bored while waiting for the various steps in my headlight cleaning, polish drying, and decided to paint some stuff.

the stock pulley shroud painted OD Green.

and my original 2002 emblem. it's uber jacked up from rocks and sun damage so i'll have to use a new emblem to get great results. just thought i'd get some member thoughts. btw the car is planned for a make-over including a full on paint job in olive drab come spring time.

how does that krylon fusion work? i've never tried it but it seems like it would work well. i just used krylon army green spray paint after cleaning the cover with electronics cleaner. i've never really had problems with painting plastic using normal paint.

subarugenuineparts.com OEM catalog. If you cant find it, just use the "contact" feature. Jaime (subiegal) will get back to you quick with the part numbers, she rocks!
