Thoughts on powdercoating....ideas????

[BlackS14]

Was wondering what you guys thought of powdercoating the intake manifold?? I'm tearing down my motor this weekend and was thinking I could powdercoat the intake manifold as well as some other goodies while down. I saw some pictures of both the valvecover and intake mani painted the same color (Steeles car) and thought it looked great.

My valvecover is gloss black so I was thinking of either sanding it down and also doing it gloss black or do black with a silver vein and leave the textured look....or do you guys have some other ideas possibly???

You guys think it would be too much or what.....give me your thoughts...

i personally like painted/powdercoated VCs and polished IMs. it's more work to polish it, but it looks so much cooler. if you paint everything black, especially on a black car, everything just blends together. not really eye catching.

I've always loved the textured paints that honda used on some of their valve covers, like the s2000.

i think it will look cool, black with a silver vein some contrast from the gloss black valve cover

I think the chrome smoke would look good or the silver vien maybe with some prism powder mixed in :)
