Default Painted my Intercooler
Thought I would share.

I had clear image paint my intercooler using a heat-dispersing semi gloss black paint.

It should do a pretty good job of making the Z a little more stealth.

Very nice! Even though it is a heat dispersing paint, will it still some what reduce the effectiveness of the FMIC by a slight fraction? Please post pics once you mount the FMIC!

Thats awesome...if I had a TT I dont know what would be nicer--showing off the big FMIC or painting it black and try to be stealthy about it....
