while my care is apart i want to take the anodizing off but to me it would look to mild so i was thinking if i could paint my chassis. i know some will say wiht will scrape off but i only run on the street that is fresh( no bumps or in and outs) will the paint have antyhting to do wiht cooling. btw so that nobody brings it up i will be using automotove urethanes and auto quality clear. so can i paint it?
 
You can paint it but it wont last very long,you could always sand it with like 400grit then wet sand it with some 1000grit and take the Mothers polish to it,BLING BLING effect!
 
theres a guy doing powder coating in the F/S forum that would be a better choice to do.

Thats a very nice looking savage 1 Bad STi! Definetely use powder coating over painting IMO.
