Yes, I know this is 2.8 v6, but take a note 
Simple work and it looks very purdy!

Why not get it bead blasted? It comes out lookin so purdy, and it takes less time..
Unless a blaster is not accessible, or you don't want to take the manifolds off i suppose. I did it with the 4k IM i put in, and it sent me on a Bead blasting frezy.... wastegate, brackets even bolts...
Either way is purdy though

Manifolds are off the motor...
I may look into something like that next summer when I start to prep the motor for install. Im on a college budget, so we'll see how much "bling" the engine bay gets.

I just prepped and then painted mine...Silver 500 or 1500F engine paint topped with 500F clear coat.
And I took the time to give the turbo script a machined look.
It'd look killer in black (krinkle, ala Derek's car) with the "machined look" turbo script....

Yours looks professionally done...
I guess I was wrong, I figured you had something special done to it 
Paint would be a good idea, what kind of prep work are we talking about here for the manifold?
