Questions regarding looks........
Has anyone on this forum, that has changed out there stock springs for the comptech spring, painted the springs black like the stock ones just for appearance? If so, is the black color a gloss finish or a regular flat black or powder coated.
Any opinions on this idea. I just dont like the idea that I will be looking or seeing silver springs when the rest is black in that area.

Good luck, PM with questions. I've had my springs for about 8 months.

You will never get a powder coat like finish with any spray paints. Spray paints are getting smarter and more advanced these days, with metallic addins and all, maybe that's what there are refering to. But it will never hold up.
I've always found good luck with the CAR TEMP paints they sell in discound autoparts and such. They are suppost to be OEM color matched paints, and they are half the size of a regular spraypaint can.

I wouldnt really worry about painting them. My springs are green(neuspeed)with yellow konis, and yes you cant see it unless you are looking in the wheel well up close.
