I vote this :
Do the whole intake NBM leaving the lines, lettering, and top section of the front (where the tb connects with the 2 screw holes) in gloss black.
Do the TB NBM leaving the top section with the BBK lettering in gloss black.

I think that would look KILLER.... srry can't photoshop it for ya.

This looks gorgeous, I think the gloss black accents would set it off so nice...

I like your buddies idea, nbm and polished/chrome metal look real good.

Get it powdercoated, hands down the best finish/durability for inside the engine bay. Anything will stick to it, just gotta scuff it up proper and clean it thoroughly before paint/powdercoat.

True powder coating would probably be best.... I'll be sure to post pics when I get it done

For sure man you won't regret it! My whole engine bay is done red to match my car, got it all done when I built the 383. EVERYTHING is powdercoated / polished hehe I love it.

Good luck and be sure to post up pics!
