Looks dull, but it is just dusty.

I even painted the t-bolt clamps. It cost me $50 to anodize. Having my girl go in with a low cut top cut the price by $50 as they originally quoted me $100.

Somebody did a test on painted intercooler. I lost the bookmark though. The heat dissipation was minimal, in fact, negligible. So get some relatively heat resistant paint in autozone.

LOL!! I will likely not be driving with my hood off.

Actually I did coat my turbo and was thinking about doing the mani, but decided what's the point of doin the mani? When/if the hood gets opened there will be a big *** ramhorn sitting there, only diff is it would b black. I was gonna get the black tial wg and bov, but I have seen them turn purple after a while and if I wanted a mAd tyTE JdM pUrPle RyDE I would have color matched everything purple to start with.

The turbo.......
