what do you guys think of my intake? im taking apart part of the engine to install my new parts (in sig) and while i was at it i painted my intake for ***** and giggles what do you guys think?



i thought it matched my theme kinda with my bergen panel and 30th ann car.

o and ignore the orange flakes, its from taking tape off. i blew it off later that day.

Depending on the brand, a lot of high temp paints need heated up after painting to finalize the paint within 24 hours of applying. I learned that the hard way

had the sicker madefor $2s at the flea market, buffed the bare metal surface with a wire wheel, aplied the sticker, sprayed with black then peeled away sticker and sanded paint off of "top lines" and used a high temp clear coat. so far still loks good after about 5k miles
