Over spray on your expensive collector car= bad.
If you get scared, I'll do a How-To also, and post a thread on my work once the parts arrive. I Have a very nice dSLR, so I can get some huge pics for you too. PM me if you just want me to send you my extra part when I'm done, I could even prep and paint it for you if you like my results.

How much would you want for your extra intake manifold? And when are you planning on doing a how to?
