Anodized stainless steel.

I think anodizing would look way cooler than paint or a wrap.
The surface could be sandblasted then anodized black for a real stealth look.
Of course it could be anodized to almost any color. Something about a metallic color that really appeals to me, and maybe the process will be faster and cheaper than any other method.
 
you can't.... Try again Grasshopper...

What Metals Can Be Anodized?

I looked it up before posting then watched a few videos on the subject. It seems stainless can be anodized and from what I saw it was either chemical or heat treatment. I'm not sure of the details, such as whether or not it would only involve rapid surface heating (since heating all the way through may destroy some useful mechanical properties of the stainless Tesla uses) or how deep a chemical etch would penetrate, but it does appear possible.
I'll definitely need to educate myself more on the matter.
