I didn't mask anything...all freehand baby!
Other than the one slip (which is driving me crazy!) it came out great

How much are sharpie paint pens? I take it they work better and will last longer than the regular markers?

I got mine for about $6 or $7 iirc. It would hold up to the heat and elements better than a standard marker.
I found the paint pen at a local fabric shop.

You can get them from junkyards or from the forsale section. They are held on by two little studs. If you look at your fuel injector rail you will see two normal bolts, those will need to be replaced with the studs and then it just pops right on.

Injector covers came on neons until they started cost cutting in 2000-2001. Some lx neons from 2000, and 2001 came with the regular neon 16valve sohc injector cover, like the one i have. R/t models came with the "high output" injector cover.. both can be bought through the stealership.

Regular 2.0 16 Valve costs near $50. 2.0 High Output costs less than $20.
