My plenums off my car at the moment because I'm changing my plugs (too hard to reach with plenum on) and I was curious if it would be possible to spray paint it? I have some semi gloss paint that looks pretty sexeh... Or does it get too hot? Let me know asap!! Lolol

 

I'm pretty sure it will be way too hot in there and powder coating is the way to go if you want to go that route.

Some high heat paint may work - I'm not sure. They sell spray paint for BBQ grills at Home Depot.

 

Some 1400 temp spray should be fine. However, I think a spray painted plenum would look crappy though.

 

Lol hope not too ghetto we will seeeee

What's regular spray paint rated at? Can't find it.

 

use high heat engine paint. its low gloss and holds up well.

regular spray paint wont last long at all

 

ghetto. get it polished or leave it stock.

 

Lol yea if it looks shitty I'll polish it.

 

Yes you may.

 

i dont know if your making a joke or you actually know it has been done before..

 

What did the plenum do to you?

 

You have a full Aps tt setup with meth injection and you want to spray paint your plenum!!

 

Rofl... Yea I don't spend much money on looks, trying to spend all my cash on performance. Ill post picks if it looks decent looks good so far, paints drying.

 

I think if you sprayed it that hitemp flat black it would look alright.

 

i don't understand how painting it is ghetto...just use hi temp engine paint, its what its made for. Talk to First350, he painted his plenum and he's local

 

rattle painting anything on your car is somewhat ghetto. my fluid covers are ghetto from me spraying them white.

 

Wouldn't automotive paint (Acrylic Urethane) work well?

This is what I plan on doing this spring, along with painting the front grill black again.

 

If it doesn't turn out good, post pics so we can laugh

No but really... On my old Celica, most of the under-hood components were painted with an Anodized Blue paint. Looked good until gasoline got on it

 

tell that to leemik...he's rattle canned a few components.

 

i used high temp paint/primer...flat black with some high temp clear coat...looks nice imo....
