ICE Install - Hiding Screws
I'm doing an ice install in my escort and i can't for l;ife of me work out a good way of hiding the screws?
one thought was to spray paint the black so you dont notice them
any other ideas?

oh sorry. should of mentioned what i was doing.
basically im installing 2 amps into a mk5 escort and due to it have a massive wheel well i'm having to improvise.
so basically i'm using the left and right wheel arch areas to to mount the amps. and what ive done at the moment is make a false floor to screw everything to. i have 2 vertical pieces of wood. flush up with the suspension struts. and i have cut holes out of them pieces of wood so that you can see the amps which are mounted on wood which is then attached to the vertical pieces.
Confused so am i

Get some special screw washers from demon tweeks
they're anodized in various colours.. get all matching screws as well...
if you cant hide them... you might aswell make them look nice
