Painting the aftermarket manifold engine color

[4aThrill]

Should I paint the aftermarket manifold the engine color or just leave it the aluminum color? If I do not paint it I will put a clear coat on the manifold, so if there is any type of leak it will not discolor. The engine color is Turquoise. Does anyone have any pics with an aftermarket manifold painted?

It all depends on youre own personal taste....I prefer them painted and looking as stock as posible (even if its not close to stock).

sweet pics, I also have the Mopar Performance vlv covers gonna keep them black kinda, I do know that we are taking the name off of the manifold easy fix there.

I've painted my aluminum parts with regular engine enamel and now clear and so far, they still look like regualr iron.  Well, except for the single plane part.

I like them painted too.
