Installed my Injen Cold Air intake Friday. Decided to Paint the Heat sheild and engine cover to match the black tubing on the cold air intake. I think it turned out pretty good!

 

good job man

 

Looks pretty clean. What kind of paint did you use on the heatshield?

I was trying to see if I could pull off a Gloss effect with High Temp paint but looks like it didn't do to well. =( Used Spray cans...

3 coats of 2000 Degree Primer, 3 coats 500 Degree Black Gloss (failed), 3 coats 2000 degree clear coat. Was gonna see if I could get away with the 500 degree black gloss but the heat from the header said F u lol. Looks like I gotta use a 2000 Degree Flat black instead.

 

Very nice job!! Not trying to hijack thread here but I will be installing Injen cai. I was curious is it possible to run it to the hole in our front bumper where our tow hook goes.

 

its not unless you cut out your actual metal bumper, the tow hook screws directly into the bumper itself, the intake filter will be under the splash guard and behind the bumper, directly behind the plastic corner vents, which you can remove to increase air plow but you need to be running a foam bypass valve to prevent hydrolock, that should avoid some of the threadjack, engine bay looks good BTW

 

Thanks for the info. Sounds like to me not worth the trouble!

 

looks nice and subtle. good work

 

Looks good.

 

ehh it actually looks decently glossy!! looks pretty good to myself! i was gonna by the black injen cai here before long!..looks good tho man!
