Painted the bottom part of the intake silver and polished the top. I left some of the casting marks becuse it gives it character.

today i had to take the turbo back off and re tap one of the holes. ended up retapping all of the holes, and rethreading all of the bolts.
mounted the cruise control back in
and put the fuse block back on its freshly painted stand
