Default Air intake

Trying to figure out a cheap way too upgrade to a cold air intake.Everything im seeing is $200. When I had a truck, I got a cheapo dual ram air intake and threw some K/N cones on it for under $100.

Anybody got anything on a custom job for the JK?

You can find High-Heat Grill paint at Hardware stores. I believe it to be cheaper than the stuff you'll get from the auto shop.

May I also suggest a engine enamel. "Grabber Green" is as close to "monster green" as i have seen.

You can get the whole intake from ebay for about $50.
