Check your local machinist...my guy can send stuff out to be anodized. I'm thinking of having my next intercooler anodized black.

No a kid showed up at my friends shop and he has a red 38mm and it faded I just though it might of faded because he forgot to put the ring in that seals it and drove it for a week. So with all the head from the exhaust going throw there all the time I though that may of caused it to fade.
