Due to discussions regarding the further advancement of GPS tracking technology on this board, I'm considering the purchase of an OEM style (no display, antennae only) GPS receiver.

They recommend that these sit on the exterior of your car. Being that I'd rather not drill holes in my brand new Audi, I'm planning on mounting this on my rear deck ...

The antennae is a glossy black dome, I'm thinking about three inches in diameter and about three quarters of an inch high. (Garmin GPS 16).

Whereas this glossy black dome on a light tan interior rear deck will obviously stand out like a cheap date, I'm curious if I can paint it without interfering with it's receiving capabilities.

It'll have plenty of clear glass around it (long sloping rear window).

I've got a textured rustoleum spray paint that blends in rather well with the rear deck cloth, and works well on plastics.

Think it'll still get adequate signals?
