I assume you're talking about the wrinkle finish on the cam covers and the plenum.

I couldn't find the original stuff here in England.

In the end I had a local firm powder coat the engine pieces, rather than paint them. They turned the job round in 24 hours for £30.

They managed an absolutely perfect colour match, but the finish is smooth, rather than wrinkled.

Judge for yourself whether this bothers you...
