  • Seemed like a good idea at first!

    Well, I thought this might turn out good, and it did if you like the color, but I wanted something a little more Red. This is supposed to be red, but in the sun it seems kinda red/orange.



    Edit: Made pic a little more screen friendly

    Well I for one like the color, at least from that pic. What color is your car, and how muh of the engine did you paint? Any pics with the cover off?

    Looks good!

      The car is a silver Maxx SS. I only painted about 1 3/4 of the intake manifold because I figured I could do it all at a later date, and it was getting kinda hard to get the paint towards the back. Also, figured I would probably not take the cover off, so just enough to cover what would be seen. Thanks for the props, makes me feel a little better.

          I don't think it looks bad at all. Plus, in a month or two there'll be enough black greasy grit to darken it up to your liking. I think you're the first to do this to the G6 so there will surely be others doing the Zerort engine mod

            Yeah, we can all start saying our engines have been "Zerort-erized"!

                    Great idea, but I also think it needs a tinge more red....

                      Looks good. I've been thinking about painting the manifold too. I painted the one in my cougar black and it looked badass. I'd want to remove this one though, so I can prep it and cover every little crevice.

                        I have to admit.. if I had the 3.9 I would instantly jump right on that mod! I like the red from the caliper paint! I think it looks awesome!

                          i like it! I though about doing that too when I painted my air intake tube but was too lazy to push that project foward and do it, but deff looks GREAT!

                              From the pic it looks pretty good. Maybe a pic a little further out from the car would be better.
