I bought my wrinkle finish spray can from my lokal Harley Davidson dealer. Don`t get surprised if it doesn`t work right away. Wait about 24 hours before the wrinkle treatment is done after the spray

I just use Krylon wrinkle finish black for my Race-Trim/Treuhaft stuff. It comes out nice. I have yet to find out how it holds up to heat though.

here is the tip with wrinkle paint spray the part heavy but no so heavy that it runs wait about 1-2 minutes max and spray another (2nd) coat the heavier the 2nd coat the more wrinkle you will get

I can't get really short intakes for my CE heads, so I'm cutting them down. How does it change the engine characteristics?

No, can't say that's ever happened. I did replace the cap the breather came with for one I picked up at Pep Boys (the one in the picture) and it's a tight fit.
