Are you talking about the type V or the single scoop?

I've seen painted Mugen and Mugen replicas with the vents left CF and they looked pretty damn good...

I've never seen a single scoop painted.

I painted about a two inch edge around the front and side's of mine and it looks good. It chipped the side when the hood blew open at a car show and slammed it on the hood prop.
