Default Repainting a Radix?

Anyone ever repaint the silver radix? Mine is a little scratched from shipping (bought it used) and i may have it out of the engine compartment here pretty soon. Was thinking of either repainting it the factory silver or maybe even black. Wonder if I can get the paint Magnacharger uses on the TVS.... hmmmm. Would there need to be any heat requirement to take into account if using an other than Magnacharger paint?

How about getting it powder coated?

You can use a good automotive grade catalyzed paint.

Remember if you paint it your warranty will be voided.

He bought it used. I kinda don't think it still has a warranty.
