Painted my LS6 intake to match my car. Check it out! I just got it back from the paint shop. It sure is cool to know someone who runs a body shop.
Cost to get this painted: $0.00 <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">

Red intake...kinda!
Not the best job <img src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" border="0" alt="[judgement]" /> but, you can get an idea of what'd look like. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Re: Painted my LS6 intake to match my car. Check it out! Does the intake need to be sanded down and then painted or is it just painted with a coat of clear???

As you can see we are kinda missing, an important part - the throttle body!
And yes the engine looks totally AWESOME!!!!

I would rather go with the custom one now that I think of it but either would be cool
