Don't order it polished you'll pay way too much. Just order it normal metal unpolished. I personally like polished end tanks so polish it yourself

Anodizing is actually an electrolytic process that tints the color of the metal, rather than simply coating the surface like a paint or powder coated finish. Anodization is a much longer lasting finish and will be far more durable over the long haul

If you're going to paint the IC, a thinner coat will have less effect on the cooling properties of the core, but will chip relatively easily from road debris. With paint/PC it's a give and take.

Agreed. A black intercooler, that attracts heat by definition, isn't exactly an optimum configuration.

FWIW, I'd buy one (as I have) from an Evo-specific shop like Buschur or AMS.

I'd say that 99% of the EVO intercoolers we sell are a natural finish, we just offer the anodizing for those wanting the look without sacrifice

If you want a stealth look you could try the black, i dont think it looks cheap, it's different & says something, ppl are afraid to be different
