I guess you can hook up the electrodes to it and watch it just blow powder at it. 
Most people spray theirs with spray paint and then just clear coat it. Not making fun of you, I actually clicked this link in hopes of there being a metal FAST intake.

I saw a thread recently of someone powdercoating their intake. It looked good and the owner said he hasn't experienced any problems with having it powdercoated.
Here are some pics of a LSx intake manifolds after powdercoating.

You can paint it yourself very easily. Details and pics in this thread.

thats because the guy that did the lsx intakes used a new form of powdercoating that is out on the market now i seen this at sema its actulay a liquid powder it is sprayed on just like paint and then baked.
