painted the main colours on both cam covers with spray cans, the silver one had the red lines and lettering painted on by hand, the blue one had the letters polished out with wet and dry, then lacquered to stop them tarnishing over time.

not personally no, but ive seen them done before, the RS1800i has a 1.8 zetec as standard so its an easy engine conversion to carry out
