Black Ignition Coil - Where to find or how to create

Post by Silver911SC »

Hi all

I am wondering if anyone can help. I keep seeing 912 engines with black look ignition coils, whereas the ones typically available to buy are bright blue or silver/blue. I know the yellow Bosch stickers are repro and believe people are potentially spray painting a standard one black and then adding the yellow sticker. Photo attached of one example.

Does anyone know if anywhere sells black ones? If not, any recommendations on which is the best one to buy and what paint to use?

Appreciate any help :)
