Default custom paint work...under the hood

I have been brainstorming business ideas in my head for along time and i finally came up with one that sounds like it makes sense. Get some people together who paint, airbrush work, or grafiti art and do custom car paint work, under the hood. Maybe the car engine cover, or the underside of the hood, on that pad thats there. I have only seen this done once before but i bet it could become more popular...shoot me over your ideas people. All are welcome, even criticism. Just trying to get some feedback on this[/b]

It'd have to be a show mod... but, in that regard... it's still not feasable for many tC applications, as the headers get dang hot on the underside of the hood, without a turbo, and with a turbo... you're still pushing too much heat on custom paint applications... it's a solid idea, and would be cool for shows... but, you'd almost have to switch hoods, or devise a protective shield of some sort to prevent discoloration or damage due to the ton of heat generated by performance parts.

Works well on a xB. It's on there full time.
