Duplicolor Metalcast
This stuff is great. It's supposed to simulate anodized metal and does a damn good job. Would post some pics, but don't have them on this computer. Painted my alternator abour three years ago with and it still looks good. Just did my valve covers this weekend. Supposed to withstand up to 500ºF.

Re: Duplicolor Metalcast
Only drawback on this is if forget to use heat approved primer on engine components as they will fade within 6 months.

Re: Duplicolor Metalcast
Yeah I still have it. After the twins were born, we got a Tahoe and I inherited the wife's Toyota Corolla. 32 MPG vs. 12 MPG......easy choice. I drive it occasionally. Drove it to work, down GS Rd, twice in the past month or so.
And with traffic the way it is, I've been leaving home a lot earlier. I usually make it across Magnolia Bridge at about 6:30 am.
