BTW, did you end up doing any front end suspension, ie: k-member, a-arms, etc? Whats the current setup front and rear?

Also, you're going to want to shield that air filter from the engine heat if you plan to track this thing.

Rattle can VHT satin black. As long as you wipe the nozzle frequently you will get a even pattern. Aluminum foil is great for wrapping stuff up that you don't want paint on.
