Paint the red intake?
 
Looking to do a color change on one of the aluminum red factory intake manifolds and curious if anyone's done this and whether they had any issues/tips/etc.

Thanks in advance.

It's a powder coated/wrinkle painted part. I'm sure you could paint it whatever color you wanted. Just be sure and mask off the unpainted aluminum areas and paint only the red part.

There a post in the new GR86 forum about the aluminum intake that someone ported and painted a dark golden color. It was in an intake manifold porting thread if you want to search for it.
