Very interesting, thanks for the information. I've thought about doing mine. GM just loves that damn Pewter color.

My truck and vette are the same pewter color so I can use the paint 2 for 1.

I did use a flex additive in the clear coat on the lid and intake though.
Might keep it from cracking.

Before I looked at the pictures I had made up mind that I wasn't going to like it, but I do like it. I think it looks great!
