So, my intake arrived
I'm not happy with the coating finish so I went to Supercheap and got some black wrinkle paint and some prep stuff
I was initially thinking about using grey wrinkle paint, but finding a quality product that gives the texture I want was "unfindable...", so the tried and tested black wrinkle paint is again finding its way into the engine bay for the OEM look
I'll sneakily head into work and get the big ovens cranking to cure the paint over the next week or so
I've also contacted MX5 Mania today to talk about the install and tune, so painting it is my "main effort" prior to sending the car off
In other news, the correspondence from the US supplier is fair to midling to say the least, I'm still trying to track down the intake box thingie with the larger intake pipe to suit the throttle body, it still is "awaiting fulfilment" (no stock currently available), if it isn't here soon I'll just get MX5 Mania to fabricate up a CAI that is easy to service the air filter
