i would have left the top of the fins bare. (jmo). otherwise, looks nice

The chassis black paint is supposed to be really good against salt and rust

I used dupli color degreaser, then I blew the aluminum off with an air hose, I used primer, paint then clear gloss.
I thought about not painting the top of the fins but I wanted to see the look; I think both would look really nice.

The reason I painted them is because the inside of the fins were oxidizing badly and discoloring badly.
