darren i was just going to say that needs a polish till i went onto the last page

 

[vwbassett]

Looks like its cleaned up good mate, as for the paint i think red forge would look better than white but once you paint it is there any going back you cant exactly polish the fins

 

[D.K]

Maybe I'll leave it

 

[AntneeUK]

Does it not make it less effective though?

 

[Mashburn]

Nooooo! Don't paint it! Looks awesome how it is!

At least put it on the car for a while to see how it looks.

Also, what are the measurements of the cooler? Been looking at universal ones, but wouldn't know what size to get!

 

[Murdered LCR]

White won't show up mate not unless your going to do it black then white forge I done mine white did look good but the whole intercooler was matt black , when there new they look the nuts but with the rain ,salt, etc they don't stay shiny. For long

 

[ArosaRacer]

i painted mine on the Evo black, and the mesh makes it look evil

 

[EmDee]

i reckon you should leave it nice and shiny mate, suits your car. In fact I think you can get it shinier

It's bling time again
I'm thinking about spraying the core black with a big Forge logo in white

Na Darren, don't do it.
Within a few months the core will be black anyway.
Keep the ends polished though as it looks tidy, have you put metal polish onto this?
Also paint 'might' reduce its efficentcy, might

Autosol will work well on it. I would protect it with a pure sealant...
