Default Gettin the LS1 intake ready...PICS

Here it is sanded and ready for primer


Here it is after 4 coats of filler primer


Here it is after the wetsanding


Here it is after 2 coats of Medium Pearl Red



Gonna take a few more coats.

I'm going to go with braided lines and AN fittings and billet rails. What color rails do y'all think...Blue, red, or silver?

I'm also going to carry this color over into my interior for the dash pieces

That's going to be nice when it's all done! I'd go with silver rails if I were you.
