looks nice with the dark grey manifold, a tiny point careful with your inlet manifold and the hammertone paint if you have painted around the injector ports where the o rings seal, the paint reacts to the fuel & breaks down and the o rings dont seal. Best to strip the paint from that tiny area so the o rings can seal against the alloy - did the same myself & learnt.

my 2 cents
Been there Done that and just want to let you know how I would have done it after I did it the way that you are doing it now.
It is alot easier to remove the factory wiring harness from the car and install it on the motor while out of the car. especially the O2 sensor. Also do not forget to run the alternator wire under the intake as well.
If you do not want to do this then leave the intake off of the motor so that you can run all of the wires under it and secure them on the heat shield first. Note: just run all of the wires and hoses first then install the intake last. It is alot easier. Also run the venture delete system on the car as it cleans up alot of mess under the intake.
