Um, how did you mask all those openings in the air filters, Iggy?
What's that? Did I just hear an "OH, SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!" 
These are mufflers, not filters.
Same/same.
I actually disassembled one to look. I do not believe that the paint
is going to do anything to them. They look like a bunch of crumpled
metal inside.
Oh, they come apart? If it were mine, I'd soak the painted "crumpled
metal" before it got hot and the paint flaked off, going into the
compressor. Just a thought.
I don't think that mufflers for incoming air would get this hot,
unless there was a building fire.
P.S: Take a q-tip and touch up under the fins & fittings, eh?
good point, will do!
And have your dad spray under the mounting plate and where you sprayed
it with green. tsk, tsk, tsk
I think that it is not really a big deal, unlike your previous point,
which is a big deal.
Cameras are harsh critics, aren't they? I use mine to give me a
different perspective than what I take for granted with my eyes.
Yep. Also,
I thought the point was to allow the buyer to have the illusion that
it was brand new vs giving them a sure clue that it was a repaint, Ig.
And it's a one, maybe two, minute q-tip touchup. shrug
When I repaint something, I say so in the auction and give pictures of
the original.
