Is the engine supposed to sit this low into the bay? And the slant of the engine normal?

On a side note also, is the strut normal to sit back that far?

Thanks guys and happy to be here! I have another question about the plastic engine cover. I want to repaint it. What sprays do you guys recommend I repaint the cover with?

If you can find the color you want in plastic paint that is the way to go but you can rough it up with 600 or 800 grit sand paper and use plastic primer then hit it with the paint of your choice.

Were you at Whaddup Wednesdays about a month ago? Any non-engine pics of your car?

Nah, I just started getting into events tbh. I've made only one and showed up late, the last P&O meet.

Here is the whip. Not much and still stock really. Future mods are in progress.
