Use thermal dispersion paint.

My GReddy Kit's IC is painted black with thermal dispersion paint. You can't see the IC at all unless you're looking really really hard.
Can you take a pic and post it? I'm thinking of doing this my self.

i have never heard about powder particles floating around to foul up anything...

the real problem with PC on an IC is that it is counterproductiveto heat transfer...you would be insulating the IC, which is what you DON'T want.

Thermal paint is ok, but it can still chip/wear over time.

Best option is to anodize. It's durable, and improves the effectiveness of the IC (more material is added to the fins)...and it comes in just about any color.

proably the track. Every thursday night, some friends of mine head to a local 1/4 mile track. $20 for unlimited runs from 8-midnight. Other than that, traffic sukcs weiner here in LA to show some punk civics whats up. LOL. I'm not a big racer though. I've had some issues with the police in the past so I try and not draw that attention back. If I was closer, i'd LOVE to go to the ZPI shootout!

Well in that case, just invite the V-Taks to the track with you, and murder them there.... Be sure to get you some Sticky Icky though, otherwise it's spin city (well, maybe not so much in an auto).

Thing is with autos, if you're spinning in first, it won't shift to 2nd.
