from what ive heard the paint keeps heat in the motor,my jug and two side cases are polished so i figured even if the paint did hold a little heat,the polished parts would expell heat more rapidly than the stock (with paint) thus making it pretty much even? i just cant see having my whole quad redone silver ,black and chrome and still having a blue engine lol.Worste case scenerio the whole engines getting polished.thanks for any info take care

 

Just polish the darn thing!

 

Polish the whole thing. Make sure you post some pictures. It sounds like a tedious job but should be sexy looking.
