I think it's mostly a matter of personal tastes. I've painted a couple of chassis myself, but only ones that had a lot of corrosion issues. most radio chassis were plated and not painted, so it's not technically "correct". I prefer the original look and I wouldn't think of painting a chassis that is in good original condition, but if it's in bad cosmetic shape, I don't see anything wrong in painting it. just my two cents!
