Just installed exotic muscle forced air induction kit.

Should I leave it black or paint it body color? Opinions?

It looks good in black. Kinda goes with your color scheme.

Looks nice!

I never thought about leaving it black, but it sure goes with your car.

Looks good JJ

I think with your blackout treatment on your parking lights, I would leave it as is.

Now my question is..... how are the Springfield police toward no front plates?

Nice! I can't wait to install mine. It's currently red though and my car is green. Wait, it's almost Christmas. hmm.. I think it would look good either way on yours. Have you thought about the black hood trim?

thanks for the comments guys. I'm going to leave it black for a little while (atleast until it warms up) and then maybe paint it white. I'm still undecided though. Here's another pic..
