Default Got a Cold air intake....

.... But the connectors (the soft ones) are yellow!!! As well as the hose that goes from the intake to the engine. DAMMIT!!!!!!!

IS there anything I can do, would it be safe to paint them, or am I stuck with yellow parts in my engine bay

Thanks!!!!!

Edit: Here is a pic so you guys know what I mean

Just go to a auto parts store,a good one like napa etc. I made my intake out of 3" mandrel exhaust and used 3" radiator hose for the conectors. Looks like a AEM but with better fit. Could give you some pics if you would like.
