You can paint them. Most old school radiators on cars were painted with a black epoxy. You can get it from Eastwood is satin or gloss black http://search.eastwood.com/search?w=rad ... &ts=custom. Of course, any paint capable of withstanding 250° f or more would probably be safe to use. Just search for "silver paint" or "manifold paint" on Eastwood's site and you will find many different variations to find just the right one. BTW, check out their Aluma Blast Paint.
