Default My concern would be the warranty from HRE....

As I assume this would void it. IF, there should ever be a problem related to manufacturing quality later on and it points to a defect, your "custom" paint job could be used as an excuse not to warranty them. Just a thought. I mean, look at the evidence in my case and they didn't want to replace them after messing up TWICE.
