Okay, you forced my hand:

By the way, I like your 710 cap, nice touch... grins. Out of curiosity, what paint did you use?

I Should have polished It!That looks great!
Falco the 710 is painted with Magnisum import Engine Spray.I actually would like to get a new cap as its leaking a little...
I found some Sweet looking Brand new Braided Stainless Hoses someone threw out next I am going to try to replace all the Vacum lines(Pretty much for looks)...
One Mans junk is another mans treasure!
Cheers!

The polished does look great but I think that green is awesome! I'll do mine red if I have to take it off.

I apoligize for the late response!
The paint is Plasticoat Engine paint "Hotrod Green".Good up to Around 500F.I Plastic bead blasted the cover at work and de greased before appling the coating.Its been a couple of weeks of cruising and the paint is Arguably still looking Great!!We will see how it stands up to the Coquihalla in the summer!
Only one negative comment about the product..The spray Nozzle busted off!!
Cheers!
