newspaper engine bay? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

thenooblet · 04-09-2010, 10:25 PM

i just had a weird idea earlier today of having newspaper in the engine compartment...could you some how lay down newspaper in there and clear coat over it or paper mache or something? if someone knows if this has been done or has any clue of how it could be done, i think it would be kinda neat, ha.

duffman1278 · 04-09-2010, 10:28 PM

Why don't you try it out on a piece of scrap body part?

Wabash9000 · 04-09-2010, 10:30 PM

sounds like a bad idea and a fire hazard.

use fiberglass if you want to do anything like that.

thenooblet · 04-09-2010, 10:36 PM

yea, it was just a thought...i might try it on something

jserman · 04-09-2010, 10:57 PM

in for pics...

Ceepo · 04-09-2010, 11:02 PM

Do you hood, you can paint it on with this tuff called Mod Podge or something like that(my mom/girlfreind use's it for crafty shits)

93nismo · 04-09-2010, 11:04 PM

that would be nifty.. but i unno if id do it in the engine bay. and clear wont hold it down. it would be cool if done on trim peices inside i think. cool idea for sure:] theres a thread somewere on here i think about how to get paper to stick to trim peices i beleive. i ment to do it to some spare things but i lost the thread.

Atleast use a Titty mag, how boring would a news paper engine be and it was the Stock market section.

Bushido · 04-10-2010, 09:46 AM

this is the worst idea ever.

I think it'd look nice on a hood if it was black and white print with no colors with a gloss finish.

JVD · 04-10-2010, 03:53 PM

at least class it up and use benji's.

Unknown007 · 04-10-2010, 04:36 PM

Money hood!!!That's dope.

Pirate_Freder · 04-10-2010, 04:51 PM

intriguing but i have my doubts about how it would good it would actually look.

either way it would also be hard to get it to stick. you might be able to do it with resin and then sand and polish the resin(the liquid you use in fiberglassing).

Om1kron · 04-10-2010, 05:32 PM

try putting gasoline all over your engine pay and painting your car with a match. let us know how that works out for you.

lflkajfj12123 · 04-10-2010, 05:53 PM

Where there is fire, we will carry gasoline.

dued · 04-11-2010, 02:47 PM

Don't do it.

Do it. NOWWW

Csomme · 04-11-2010, 06:01 PM

I think if you used an old comic book or something it would look pretty fucking dank.

You have a mom/girlfriend?!?!?
I guess that's how you guys get it done in Utah huh?

Back on topic: This idea is lame, but you're probably gonna do it anyways, so go ahead and eff up your bay with fiberglass, or however you decide to do it. Hope you have fun being gay.

Ceepo · 04-12-2010, 12:20 AM

I have 8 wives man, dont be hatin...

thenooblet · 04-12-2010, 02:13 PM

Me too! Utah boy born and raised. This idea is stupid though. How the hell did you think of this?

thenooblet · 04-12-2010, 06:25 PM

i was with my brother in walmart getting spray paint and ive been thinking of colors to paint my engine bay and he said something about newspaper and that triggered the thought...im just gonna paint it orangy orange

240sxrb25 · 04-12-2010, 06:51 PM

you have really good ideas, wanna work on my car?

ZX88 · 04-12-2010, 06:51 PM

lol did you create the fabric hood thread?

thenooblet · 04-12-2010, 07:22 PM

^no...thats not even funny

AN89HATCH · 04-12-2010, 07:32 PM

You should put fabric on your hood, and have a news paper engine bay. That would be so fckng funny when the fabric hood guy pops his hood, and there's news paper everywhere lol

yellowxhoodie · 04-12-2010, 10:47 PM

i think a newspaper and fabric mod day is in order
