Polishing the manifold takes a LOT of work, it doesn't matter whether you use yours or buy another one. Polishing it will require you to grind the surface smooth which takes quite a bit of time.

Well given this some thought and I've decided to not paint the covers as stated above but. Considering the Smokey clear ones.

Who has HID lights on theirs and what brand would you all recommend? I am wanting to be that one Ahole that has HID everything lol high, low's and fogs. Have found the kits but anywhere from 35$ to 200 each. So wondering if it's a pay for what you get kind of thing or what

The HID kits have been covered in detail, do a search and you should find a ton of info on them. In short there are 2 types of kits OEM ones made by phillips and chinese ones, soem are good some are not.

I've searched and learned thank you. On payday if the price is right I'm gonna risk the 40$ one an keep my normal bulbs just. in case and maybe by a new intake and try my luck at polishing.. Do intake spacers on these engines help at all?
