However, bare aluminum quickly forms a layer of oxidation when exposed to atmosphere, plus the anodization process adds a fairly negligible thickness of oxide, so you won't notice any adverse effects.

copied and sent myself an email....great stuff...thanks bro!

That looks good ED. I think I will spray mine black and add some text instead of sparco. Maybe Ill put a huge Z or something. I saw a cobra here that painted it all black with COBRA spelled out in white paint. It looks amazing.
