Default painting intake manifold...good or bad idea?

Since I'm painting my engine, would it be a good idea to paint the intake or would it be better to leave it it's natural aluminum color?
My block is is yellow and I thought of painting my intake black but I'm not sure if that would just draw extra heat and hurt performance.
