Started a project to wrap a few AA Supercharged M3 engine parts including the intake manifold, vlave cover, cabin air filter, ECU cover, Xenon cover, stock ram air intake and secondary air pump cover! Intake manifold has been a PITA, but overall the project has gone well! First time using a 1x1 plainweave CF cloth and I REALLY like working with it and it's appearance!! I'll skip the early pictures and get right to the current stage pictures....

Parts are ready for wet sanding.... The intake has already been sanded to 220 wet; next 400 and 800 and then clear coat...... Finally 100, 1500 and 2000 wet, buff and polish and they're ready to go!!





















After I finish this post, I'm picking up a new expansion tank and EGR/Oil separator assembly and associated hoses, heading over to my mechanic buddies garage and replacing those items. Expansion tank has small pin hole leaks (4 tiny pinholes spraying water) and have loi leaking from separator valve. Not bad, considering the car had 260,000km and those a re factory original parts being swapped out!! Going to be busy tonight I guess......
