Now bear in mind i'm doing a little dreaming here but how much would one be looking got get the intercooler housing (the reb bit) painted like this?

Or could it even be a diy job?

As long as it's only the housing you want painted and not the tray at the bottom, not a lot. If you want the tray, then it's engine out time.

Hell, a can of spray paint and I'm sure you could do it yourself. I guess you'd need heat resistant paint though.

Or since its black do i need to prime it with gold or white?
