Default Painted Fast intake and Lid

Just got my Fast 90 and TSP 85mm lid back from the paint shop I had them painted pewter to match my car and cleared. Thought I would share some pics of them with the Nick Williams 90mm TB also.

Looks really nice. Little piece of advice though. I've painted a LOT of lids and I always leave the tabs that lock the lid in place unpainted. Reason is
they get scratched up anyway and sometimes crack the paint. Unfortunately
the crack can run up onto the visible part of the rear of the lid. My suggestion would be to take some tape and mask off a straight line running across the tab where it meets the lid and use some lacquer thinner to rub that paint off the tabs.
