What do you use to keep the FRPP intake looking so black? Looks good!

I'll have to try that, does it work on the inlet tube and all the other black plastic under there too?

I'll play. I just finished installing my new Comp Turbo CT3-6062 Triple Ceramic Ball Bearing Oil-Less turbos, replacing my Garrett 57mm BB turbos. I haven't had a chance to get it all cleaned up yet but here are some shots.

D'prived, that is a mighty fine looking under-hood shot! How did you work the vinyl sheet around all the little depressions, angles & holes? That must have taken you a lot of effort to do properly.
That is a damn good idea to use the self-adhesive vinyl sheet! Does it stay down good? Or do you have to play with it occasionally?

The red valve covers look great! Is that wet spray or powder-coat?

That looks like it's Hydro-dipped, not a vinyl sheet.

Thanks for the comment. If you're talking about the skulls then that part was hydro printed. I had it done by a company called EB Liquid Print in Harvest, Alabama... http://www.facebook.com/EBLiquidPrint
