Thanks! Can I get straps at Homedepot, or Walmart? They are both closeby, just wondering what options I have.

just tap it off really well.... i wouldnt recomend getting any paint inside the cover because you dont want paint mixed with your oils flowing throughout your engine do you? i know i wouldnt. just spend some extra time masking and tapping
