While I think it looks nice, I'm not sure that it's a good idea to paint the supercharger black, we're going to great lengths to keep 'em cool. Black is going to retain heat but maybe not a problem if it's not driven hard. None the less, it looks good.

I have mentioned it before, what we want is for someone to trim of the ears on that nose piece so it blends into the plenums. That would get rid of the oil filler cap.
Cut off those ears, fill the gaps with fiber glass and smooth it all out again. The part also needs some clips added as it rattles around held down with the front clip only.
How hard can it be?

Let me know when you get that accomplished so I can see the results and decide if I want to tackle the same.
