Graphite grey looks awesome, I'm going for that color when it comes time to spiffy up the intake.

to edit and add something: I thought I saw a carbon fiber intake on here somewhere? In a thread titled something like "900kg 951" and an intake was one thing they constructed out of carbon fiber. I have a buddy who is going to start learning how to mold carbon fiber, maybe we'll try an intake for ****s and giggles.

Seeing as I don't know anything about carbon fiber and it's applications, is that an easy task compared to most things or what? I imagine getting the dimensions are the hardest part, but I maybe turning those dimensions into this finished product in particular isn't easy.

My manifold is flat black hi-temp paint with the same on the intercooler pipes. I'm thinking about doing the same color in pc.

I'm fan of the polished look too, but you do have to do your regular upkeep.

Must admit those metallic Grey ones also look very nice. Especially on the darker cars!

I agree with Patrick I went the shinny route
My intake isn't in yet hence its a table shot ...
The cam tower was in a few months ago ... I need to pick up the pace a bit
Regards
Ed
ps Patrick the engine is looking very sweet

Patrick,
your coil pack installation looks good. A custom made plate?

You've even shined up your headers! lol. Don't tell me you've gone in and polished up your pistons or something too Eddie... If you haven't, I hope I haven't given you any ideas...
