sl3196 Posted August 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Where'd you get that paint at? Cuz it looks good to me! Wal mart. Also I cleaned and sanded it with 1000grit first. Then used duplicolor's base metalic coat. Then put on the red anodized stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logikf1ve Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I dunno, I liked the black. The paint you used also isn't a close enough match for me. It would drive me nuts. Nice paint work though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5speedz34 Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I like the black too, it offset the red. My buddy did the same on his '97 but car his powdercoated silver(his car is red). Actually powdercoating is pretty cheap. <-----still loves your intake Personally, that intake sucks. My same friend with the '97 bought it from ZZP and spent something like $250 on it w/the filter. Although it looks cool, it just sucks imo, because if you remove it, it's hard to get everything to go back together. Also, the intake hose is just dryer duct. Very cheap materials. He's now replaced it with 4" Mandrel bent FWI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
