WOW!! This has met and far exceeded my expectations! I can't wait to get the lid done to match. >>>Needs to get back to the states so I can have fun with all the goodies I've been getting done while I've been overseas<<<:beer:

Well done, is that Vista blue? I imagine it matches the stripes.

An FYI on the intake, the one painted above was found on the Saleen Extreme cars '07+ at which time the previous "Extreme" intake became the standard Saleen S/C intake. So it depends on what year Saleen/Saleen blower kit you are talking about as to what it's called. Saleen did start calling the hard plastic inlet version the "Ultimate intake" at some point, put it seems most people still refer the intakes by what car/kit it came in.

That is going to look really sweet, and I fixed my post since it didn't come across right.

You have a nice ride and I gotta say I love the avatar.

Yes it's Vista blue... I had to play with primer color a little to get it to come out the way we wanted. But overall very happy with the finished product

Just an FYI the only thing used here in this thread was paint.
The Saleen Extreme intake would melt if powdercoated.

Lid? Whats a lid? The intake or the shield?
Do you mean supercharger hat?
Logo? Do you have a pix of your setup?
Also unless its metal you cant powdercoat.
You paint it.
