Milodon Oil Pan Finish
I received my new Milodon oil pan today. I have one question. Do people usually paint these or leave them the original color? It has a gold color finish with a Milodon decal on it.

If you decide to paint the pan, just clean it to remove any oil or residue and spray the pan with duplicolor engine chevy orange paint sold at any auto parts store. Mine looks like it's new for two years now and have had no peeling or flaking, the key is getting the pan clean before spraying...
the finish on their pans is gold-iridited...

I thought people bought these because they liked the look?
