well, my project international has a AC unit i have mounted and wired to the roof.
its basically your stock low profile RV sty;le 110 unit that roof mount, and about 10" high.
my problem is, my truck and sleeper cab are all black,. and the fiberglass shell on the unit is white.
the sleeper is going out for paint this week, and am debating on wether or not to send the AC shell out with it to be sprayed black or not...... i know white repells the heat soaking into it, and the color i would want it to be will suck the heat in, so is it worth it to leave it white and to stick out or should i paint it?

Painting it black will not decrease the efficiency.
