i had bad experience with paint stuff.

I paint my caliper, intercooler cover, ECU cover and Fuse box.
I even paint the bracket on the BBK.
never came out the way i wanted. maybe i am just not smart enough.

The hardest part is on the clear coating.
If i am able to paint the scoop good enough to match the car paint, i would paint all the black plastic pieces around the car.

but thanks for the tip thou, it came to my mind about couple of month ago.
Still want to go for the OEM

Cool. I think you can pick them up painted from the dealer for $75.
