I would like to powdercoat the aluminum bracket that is in front of the intake horn and behind the coolant hose how hard is it to take that piece off ? I know that bracket has a name but right now I can't think to straight .

That block is what the APPS bolts to. It comes off real easy with 3 bolts then you unbolt the APPS from it... no problem at all.

Thanks I new it had a simple name but for the life of me my brain was having a brain freeze . How about the black plastic cover beside it I know I can't powdercoat it but can you paint plastic ?

You can paint plastic... I would sand it first since it has a gloss finish. They make paint especially for plastic also.
 
Rustoleum metallic blue is what i used for the top cover and intake horn and just sanded the paint off the letters, planning to do the individual covers hemi orange or just sand the paint off and shine them up
