Have a look at it. Brake line is dirt cheap. Accidents..... are not. If it looks even remotely questionable, replace it.

So, I started to paint the engine bay with rust reformer by rustoleum and then black primer and then flat black.... Way to much work for it to just get scratched easily again. So I rubberized it all with 3M Under Coating. Still gives it a flat black look with texture. looks pretty good in person the picture probably doesn't serve any justice.



Don't use the rustoleum undercoat it is very fine almost like regular paint.

use the 3M
