Re: Show off your painted or polished intakes!!

My polished Accel Pro Ram. Accel does not make a polished version, had to polish this piece myself. I knocked off the false floor between the runners in the front that said accel and smoothed the whole thing. I also removed the columns of material that would have allowed you to add coolant ports in the corners since I wouldn't use them.

Re: Show off your painted or polished intakes!!

Most aluminum intakes hold dirt and oil because of there porosity so a painted or powder coating helps a lot to keep them clean.
