Painting an AEM FPR, and fuel rail

Can it be done without problems? Any tips on how to do it, if so?

I just paid about half price for a brand new AEM FPR, and fuel rail combo. Both are blue, but that's not the color I want (was thinking about silver instead), but I only went with the deal because of the price.

Your thoughts?

I painted my STR fuel rail flat black and have yet to have problems with it. Sanded it with 1000grit, cheap primer and 2-3 coats of 0.99cent flat black paint I had around in the garage. Just be careful when putting the fuel lines and injectors back in as the raw liquid fuel will strip the paint back off

Sweet. Just the answer I was looking for.

Oh, of course.
