Default Charge to paint LS6 Intake??

Their is this guy I know at a body shop and he is going to paint my LS6 Intake, and if it comes out good I was going to ask him if he would like to do this on the side with me, would anyone be interested in this?

Not to be the naysayer here however

Once you look at cost of shipping both ways plus paint and materials and painter cost, its probably cheaper for everyone to take it to a local shop.

With all the kinds of killer spray paint out it would be hard to get people to pay alot for it, honest my painter would do them for 25 bucks, all you have to do is have them paint it,prepn something like that is easy as hell

I'd send it to Silverghost & have him powder it before I'd waste the money on paint. Much more durable which is what you want under the hood.
