Not to sound ricey or anything, but has anybody painted their supercharger? I am interested in painting it black. That way it will blend in a little better with the OE appearance of the engine compartment. I am guessing that the compressor gets pretty warm so will high temp engine paint work? :az:

Nah... I didnt paint mine.. i painted the SC bracket.. I wouldnt paint the SC myself tho.. even with high temp paint. That blower gets really hot all the time. Maybe powercoating it if anything but then I would imagine it wouldnt let the SC cool as fast as the bare metal would..
