Good results like that will only come with skill, good equipment and paint, and good painting conditions. Don't even think of trying it yourself.......

You think I can do this myself?

Get yourself a smooth plastic box, and some black spray paint, and make believe that it is your engine cover. Paint it the best you can. Then mentally add a level of complexity due to the ridges and contours of the real engine cover, and ask yourself if you are comfortable with putting that level of paint quality as a showpiece under the hood of your $50K car.

Or hell....just give the engine cover a try with the understanding that if you fail you will need to live with it ugly, buy a new one, or send it out to a pro.
