Does anyone know if you need to use a high temp. paint for your fuel rail covers ?

if the cost isnt a big factor then i would deffenatly go with the high temp paint cuz ive touched the fuel rails after riding around and they get pretty hot JMO

I used a standard body paint on mine. They get warm, but certainly not hot.

So far (less than 6 months) I have no problems with mine. I used plastic primer, followed by the factory color from a GM dealer, topped with clear, and ZCS.

You could "anodize" or "powder-coat" them.

I have read guys using high heat paint and not having any issues.

fuel rail paint

I'm not sure what color to paint them. I really don't want to paint them my car color ( carmine red ) I already painted my calipers that color, looking for something eye catching, any ideas ?

I bought these on eBay. They were brand-new in the factory GM boxes. The seller used automotive primers and paints, nothing that is high-temp.. They have been on my car for about a year and a half now and look just as good as when I installed them. Mine don't get very hot, just warm.
They were just the right colors for my car which is Arctic White with Torch Red interior. When I saw them, I just had to have them.

The guy that painted mine used regular auto paint, but he did put something he called " Flex " in the paint to keep it from cracking. When I get out of the car, I usually lift up the hood to get out the heat from the engine and let it cool.
