Not really the best person to answer that. I was saving up for the ceramic coated one. Hopefully some will get it back on the market, otherwise I'll need to know the answer to this as well.

 

to get matching paint go to paintscratch.com and buy from them. Get adhesion promoter (for plastics), base coat and clear coat (for shiny finish). From what I remember one can of base coat and one can of clear coat is more than enough to paint the intake tube. Dont forget to lightly sand the intake first to assure the base coat will stick.

 

PM courthousedeb that is her intake and she has done all the work herself.

 

The one linked above is the silver powdercoat. We can also get them Ceramic Coated as a $15 option.

 

Thanks Jeff...I was hoping you'd be along to answer the question being asked.

As for painting the CGS, I bought a couple cans of Sunburst Orange Metallic spray paint from the dealer. I used 400 grit sandpaper, wet down and sanded the entire CGS to rough it up a bit. Then I washed it off with soap and water and then cleaned it with rubbing alcohol. I didn't use any adhesion promoter or any clear coat on the top and it still looks great after months of being there. When I open the hood to show people they actually think the car came that way too.

 

Thanks Deb, Knew you would come thru as well.
