mine is being painted the same color as my car, black. Polished fuel rails look good on black and the direct port I'll build will look good against it as well. Best dam intake so far was the black widow from Nitrous Dave. I didnt vote in the pole. I dont like the options. Nothing wrong with the weay the FAST looks but there is nothing wrong with customizing it either. It looks plain out of the box.

I personaly don't like to advertise...... especially when my car still has another year of warranty left on it. Some dealers are a real PITA to deal with when they have seen that you have modded your car. I would get rid of the FAST logo, and paint it black.

Looks great. Mine is similar but I left the wilson and painted the entire shell a dark gray and the FAST in white. Rattle cans work great if you know how to wetsand/polish when appropriate.

I spent a TON of time making mine a nice gloss black.
To me it makes it more mine, but I'm a fan of a nice themed engine bay too so there's that.

I only read the first page, but in case nobody hit upon the idea yet, I'll say it: SLEEPER

Perhaps some of the guys who sand them and paint them black want the local street race competition to think it's a factory manifold. Did that occur to you?

It's all about working for that surprise advantage when it's show time.

I painted my white with blue lettering to go with the car. It looks sweet. the valve covers are white too. its much easier to whipe grease off too.
