You might want to use the provided oetiker clamps for on top of the oil trap that way there is no way they can loosen and you'd have to take the intake manifold off again just to tighten them up just a bit of a suggestion

sorry I didn't see this post after I posted. Do they have that kind at parts stores? I messed one up, because I never used them before and I messed it up with pliers.

about as good as i could do for rattle can, finish is a bit rough in places but it doesnt look too bad, if i get pissed at it ill get it done for real

Really didnt prep a ton, just stripped all the other paint off of them. Sanded the silver off of the letters and scuffed the rest of it. The clear was the only bit i got rough, i dumped like 2 cans of volvo clear on them and they still came out a bit rough
