Im going to be taking my upper intake off and throttle body for powder coating, is there anything i need to know about taking it off, or is it pretty simple?

Quite simple. Just make sure you save all your hardware and for the love of god do NOT drop anything down into the lower intake. Masking tape off the intake holes as SOON as you take the upper off.

Are you going to be disassembling the throttle body to have it coated?

When I took my intake off for my HCI I just used some Duplicolor high temp engine paint and painted the mofo silver. Looks nice and cost $10 for a can of primer and paint.
