Default Where to get RED Sti Inlet manifold Paint?
Hi all

Does anyone know where to buy inlet manifold paint. Trying to get the original wrinkle finish in red. Someone out there must have already done this one.

Thanks
Brad

DIY

Chemical stripper, metal wire brush, cheap paint brush for applying stripper, 1 can VHT wrinkle paint code SP204. Spray away.

Turns out pretty neat at the end of it.

Hope that helps

Should look like this
