That looks awsome bro, what you paint it with it came out real glossy. Yeah for sure paint the TB and spacer black, its easy to sand down crome just get you grinder with a steel brush at the end and scuff up the crome a bit them primer and paint.

I used some High Heat Low Gloss black, it was nice and dull before the clear coating and that shined it right up, the clear is high heat as well. I wish it would have been more of like a Flat black but what can ya do now!

You got to be kidding me. That must be one hell of a feeling when it hits your throat. Big mouth too.

I Saw some of the pics on another thread where the guy was polishing the intake and I thought I could do it, but sh*t I got halfway through and said Forget It. I'm gonna paint it the same color as the car. Blue is the factory Color. And I Figure Since the car Is going to be repainted back to the factory Blue and Titanium, I'll have a Blue and Aluminum look under the hood to match since aluminum is about the same color as the titanium on the car.
