Default Pontiac Blue FAST Intake Idea...Your thoughts...

Ok Iv got my car down getting ready to put a new cam and lifters in. Iv painted my valve covers, water pump and some other little things a color that is VERY Close to Pontiac Blue with a little more metallic flake. Well...I wanted to do my FAST the same..but with an old school look. What if I had a decal made that said 345.7 just like the old school Pontiac Air Cleaners and put in on the FAST where it says "Wilson"...

IDK..Im just thinking out loud lol..

This is on an LS based engine...just thought it would look different



Well this is what I ended up doing..sorry its not all cleaned up and a lot neesd to be done but heres an idea!

i dont know man , your car is pretty flawless,dont you have some firehawk logos on your engine bay?post some pics of that engine bay so we could give you some ideas, i think maybe gloss or flat black intake,the fast in red or silver,and the wilson in red or silver ,if the fast would be done in red ,i would do the wilson in silver,just an idea in my head,just to try and match the firehawk logos i think you have lol

yes pontiac blue will definitely give u style points for creativity.. ur prolly the only one to do it from what i know

However, a glossy black.. with pontiac blue fast lsx letters would also look great.. infact i think u should do that

Why don't you do it how the old filter is. Silver metallic on the intake with red and white lettering.

I'd have to agree. That with some polished pullies and valve covers would look great I think.

Totally off subject but how do you get your pictures at the bottom of your comments like that? Is it a type of program or website? BTW.. Bad *** engines.
