Polishing is too much work for me and it takes too much up-keep.
I do like red... THANKS MAN! =)

Thats the camera. It's a little bit lighter than the car. I coulden't find a heat resistant paint that mached the car color.

Next week probably.

I have a extra S/C now and I was considering painting it and selling it if people had enough intrest in it.

But thanks for the input everyone! I realize that it's not for everyone but I had a spare S/C and some extra time. I think it turned out pretty good myself. Can't wait to get it in!

Huh?
Waht are you asking? The "?" placement throws me off.

Are you asking...
A: if I painted it <Yes, but it was just me and no one else... don't know who else you are talking about when you say "guys".

B: why I painted it < the answer to this should be apperant as I just said that I had the extra time and S/C. and I wanted to try it out.

Hope this helps man.

I think it would look better paitned flat black and polishing out the "ribs" of the supercharger. I think that is going to look bad once it is in the car. It will also hurt performance of the blower because it will make it much more difficult to keep the blower cool with it painted like that.
