DIY painted intake manifold cover
Painted the intake manifold cover and "A" badge in rear trunk in semi black gloss with just two coats and no primer. I would say the hardest part is masking the I-Vtec emblem from overspray and having a nice clean line along the edges and it looks really professional. Here are some pics:
