Default RSD Air Cleaner quick change
Decided to paint the chrome grill to black. I think it looks much better now but I'm not sure how hot this gets. I used regular paint. A quick 10 minute ride and it wasn't hot at all but after an hour or more??

That does look cool. Would not think the air cleaner would get very hot. As long as your paint prep was good you should be ok

Almost no paint prep. I wasn't sure i'd like it so i cleaned it with rubbing alcohol and sprayed it about 5 coats knowing i could get it off. I guess if it peels or something i will take it out and do it right.
