I'd like to get that gloss black look out of my LS6 intake when I finally buy it. Either that or polished.

Did you take it somewhere to get painted? Where? How much did it run you (if you don't mind me asking)?

Or did you use a rattle can?

I am going to have mine sand blasted (I have the Aluminum Weiand/Holley intake) and powder coated gloss black.

I'll post pics when I get it done.

Some VERY nice looking setups here guys!

Man, you post 15 times in over a year and you give this guy crap?

That's messed up. I like his setup: He did it himself, it's unique AND you can very easily see the light from the camera washed everything out. Good job on the intake Yak.
