Default Anyone paint their header heat shield?

I was thinking about painting mine black. Just wondering if any of you guys have done this. I know it gets really hot, so I am not sure if high temp paint can even match up with this or not.....

Thanks!

i painted myn on my 95 ls, and its looks much better than it did before. I used the VHT 1500* flameproof paint. Its been 2 weeks and i havent seen any problems with it. Go for it

Why does everyone have to consult H-T for their ideas. JUST GO FOR IT! BTW I did this on my LS with VHT, came out nice.
