Paint the aftermarket radiator brackets?

I got a set from LMC since I am upgrading from 2-3 row to the 4 row size.

The ones from LMC, which I imagine are the same as the other retailers of repop parts, have a shiney coating. Almost like a galvanized finish. Just curious if anyone has left them bare and how they held up? Or if they should be painted to maintain longevity?

I've never bought radiator brackets from LMC (Or anywhere else for that matter) but if the finish you describe is zinc or Galv.,you can install them without paint. Personally, I'd paint them.
