I would like to paint my front mount in effort to be more descreet about being turbocharged... Mostly due to law enforcement.

I wanted to paint it black, but I do not want to hamper the function of the i/c, so I was told to paint with "radiator paint." The reason for this is because that paint is extra thin and wont cause any ill effects. So I went to autozone and kragen, and they said that they dont carry any radiator paint and that it's just the same thing as regular high temp spray paint.

What sould I paint my i/c with?? Is there a place where I can get radiator paint??

Thanks.

high temp spray paint...

or if you want to be anal about it, have it anodized.

Just don't go powdercoating the thing.

Flat black BBQ paint.

Same thing. Works great on IC and piping.

You can paint it... just don't be liberal with the amount.
