Why not test it first, then worry about color..

Well, that is not what I meant..

not Test Fit.. Test it, meaning.. why make it pretty if you put on and it makes the motor run worse..

I suggest test it out for a while first before making it pretty

She is about 1/4 too tall.......will shim the hood

those runners look as if they were sanded smooth prior to the black PC or is the PC really thick to make it smooth?

LGAFF · 05-22-2015

No black gloss really covers well...no sanding

Definitely going to need to shim the hood....and even take 1/4 inch out of the center of the plenum cover(its 1/2 thick)
