Thanks bro. its all flat black right now. I think we are going to put the blue ribs back on just wanna see what everyone thought. I like the blue but we didn't let it dry all the way so it kinda peeled off with the tape so we are going to redo it. lol

umm have you guys ever driven your cars for and length of time and then touched your supercharger? It's barely warm to the touch. I don't think you will have any heat issues by doing this...

i can drive home in rush hour traffic and still put my hand on the blower and not get burned. I don't think you have to worry much about the paint holding the heat. If it does it may only be a few degrees...

i dont see any pulleys or stage kits in your sig. that might explain why your s/c isnt hot. mine never got hot to the touch with the stock pulley.
i switched back to a stage 2 pulley until i get some cooling mods. with a 2.8" pulley it was so damn hot i couldnt even brush against it. iat2 of 160+ FTMFL

^^^sounds like you need to get those cooling mods ASAP. I have about another year before I go with 60# injectors and a 2.6 and a tune so I'll be doing the dual pass, CX Racing H/E, Opt B and maybe meth between now and then. When I do the tune I'll probably have them set the pump for the H/E up so that it runs when the key is on instead of when I hit the gas.

meth injection is a must if you go 2.6." do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. it is required.
