I painted my jrc 5" black and I think its a bunch of BS that people argue about whether it hurts performance or not. How thick is your front mount? How much paint did you have to use? All your doing is painting the face of it, Your not dipping the whole thing in.

I don't want to spray paint them. There really good couplers. I would rather find black ones. Or Kain suggested black cardboard and black zip ties around it.

Looks great to me. Looks like a huge radiator from the outside for those who know ---- about intercoolers. if your going with the sleeper look get some black couplers cause those blue ones are a dead give away.
