Opened up the homey paint booth and went at it today...Damn thing came out sweet... This is PPG concept...Used this on my last intake and it holds up like a mofo, almost like powdercoating..Its single stage so no clear is needed either, this way it wont Yellow over time...

Painted the CAI parts to match the upper and bought some nice Gloss Black turbo connectors to finish it off...Next up is the Fox TB and its gonna be Black so it should look sweet all together...
Got a new Cobra plaque to throw on it to boot...
