Yeah, I may see if you'd like to paint mine too.

I'd have to think on this...

It takes several hours of sanding, prep, and painting, + materials cost. I know American Muscle sells them pre-painted ready to go for $100. However, they do not sand them smooth like I did and I'm not sure if they even clear coat. Most of my time spent is with sanding. If I do the recessed lettering It is even further involved as I have to do additional sanding / prepping.

So finally bought the paint a few days ago, think I'm just gonna spray it without sanding for now since I'm always busy. Then when winter break comes I'll sand it down and all that and redo it

Cool! Ya I've only started sanding a bit on the plenum piece. I've been busy with some other things. I plan to start working on it before the end of the year again. 80% of my free time is going into studying for a certification test I am trying to knock out. Once I am done with that I will have a LOT more time on my hands.

Good luck on your certification

I have a buddy who started doing painting so thinking about having him just do all the sanding for me lol. But at the same time I wonder if vinyl wrap would be easier cause less prep work
