Default painted ls6 intake pic

Okay, the intake has been on the car for almost a month, and has had over 1500 miles put on it. It seems to be holding up the the heat really well. I drive about an hour to school everyday, and looks amazing.

Here is a decent pic, i still need to detail the engine bay, and do the wire mod. Tell me what you think.

And here are a few of the car...
