Nice!

I once tried to paint these intakes for my Miata. The part was no bigger than those door lids. I must have spent 20 hours in the cellar wet sanding, priming and then going through two cans of body color matched paint cans (from Tower Paint). THe job probably could have been done with a 1/4 of one can.
I think I had to re-do it four times because I didn't wait long enough between coats and the paint started to dry weird, dust, eyelash, .....etc.
