the paint set funny in a few spots...im not sure why but they are completely covered anyways. I just sanded down the intake, got rid of those little circle indentations in the plastic, plastic primed it and shot it with some ppg silver single stage paint. Just wait till I get my ls6 intake and really spend some time wetsanding etc...
