ORIGINAL: twofish
Chrome air cleaner cover’s next with [/font]subculture08[font=arial]’s
Krylon # 3370 Jet Black Wrinkle .
Sand blasting first may be in order on this one.

Any other good options for prep work?

RE: Rattle can job worked for me.
Good job twofish -- and a note if anyone is concerned with just leaving a primered surface exposed to fingerprints, dirt, oil, road grime (once you mess with primer she'll discolor/lighten in just the spots you rub or touch) - lay down over the primer some Krylon Satin Clear #1313 or Matte Clear #1311, or for a different look, semi-flat. I'm sure other brands work as well but these are inexpensive and readily available (WalMart, hardware stores, etc). Often just an automotive flat black primer alone will tend to rub off a little, or develop a sheen if rubbed (like with a pant leg or just washing and then drying). No idea about some of the wrinkle finishes, but probably fine w/o any top coat.
