Painted my intake cover :)

Theres 6 coats of black and 3 coats of clear on that baby. I think it turned out really nice compared to what it used to look like.

Thanks,
Yeah, I used Duplicolor black and clear high temp (up to 500 degrees). I was thinkin about just using some Krylon clear (not high temp) I had around the house, but after getting this far, I wasnt going to have it peel off.
Im thinking about doing the valve covers next, maybe painting them all black, and then painting the indents near the intake aluminum colored.
