Caught the Bug
Well I have my Poison Spyder BombShell Differential Covers all painted and ready to go when I get off of my crutches and do the Differential Fluid Change. By know means can I paint so for me this is an awesome Job. When I was a young Airmen when I first joined the Air Force, I was told to paint a room. The Commander came down and gave me a direct order never to pick up a paint bush again or paint anything.

They look good to me. I too am on crutches and it hasn't slowed me down too much. Well at least until the Dr said stay off of your leg or you're going to make it worse and need surgery..haha. I put an air filter and cabin filter in my wife's car last weekend.
 
They look great too me! One suggestion if you haven't thought of it. Get two extra bolts that are 1/2 longer than the PS bolts that came with the covers. Cut the heads off. Put these at 3 and 9 O'clock as guides for placing the covers on. Get all your other bolts started before removing. This makes mating the covers up nice and clean with the RTV.

Nice job.

Permatex RightStuff sealant works great. Pricey but easy to use and sets up quick.

A few people have painted the spot on the rear of the spider red, looks cool.

Y'know, every once in a while someone suggests something so goddam stupidly simple that it makes you feel like an idiot. This is one of those ideas. Thanks Coop!

Those look sharp. I'll keep a look out for pictures of them bolted up.
