The looks of the coyote engines are really boring. Has anyone painted the plastic pieces on their engine with rattle cans. If so any helpful hints would be appreciated. And how has it held up.

I did this one for a customer a few years ago:

I did it with the same paint that I used on the body but there is no reason you couldn't do the same with quality rattle can paint. Clean the parts well, wipe them down with Isopropyl Alcohol and hit them with a couple of light coats of Bulldog Adhesion Promoter first.
