Tape off what you don't want painted... I'd prolly use high temp engine enamel if I were to paint.

Don't forget also to prep the surface really well. Look into VHT and Duplicolor products. They have high temp paints.

easiest way is to take the blower off, clean it really well, then paint it. almost impossible to get a professional looking job spraying it while still on the car IMO
