Pictures of Installed Painted Stillen G3 Intakes?

I did some searching, but didn't find much. Does anybody have pictures of painted Stillen Gen 3 intakes installed on their Z? I really like the idea of having them painted, but I'm not sure if I can justify the cost.

Anywho, let's see some pics!

I dont have any pics of my own, but i believe a member did this a few weeks back. Anyways, heres a pic i found but if you want to see more, google: "wrinkle paint intake 370z"

Yes! Save the $ and paint it yourself. Plastidip works too so go nuts, but use common sense and carefully wrap up the MAF area well.

The black looks very clean, Swiss! As far as painting, believe when i tell you its very easy (and kinda cool) painting with the wrinkle paint, and very hard to mess up if you follow the instructions. I know you didnt ask for pics of the engine cover, but heres mine, done this past week :happydance: just in case you want to dress up the engine bay a bit more. WARNING: painting with wrinkle paint is addictive, careful with not going overboard :icon17:
