Man trust me...not that quick, and not enough of a difference between black plastic and shiny stainless steel to make ANY difference in power at all.

I could use the flip side and say that the plastic will become heat saturated faster and thus infuse more heat into the air flowing through it over the stainless steel part as it will actually dissipate heat. You don't see plastic radiators right? That's because metal releases heat faster than plastic as well, but that really doesn't make a hill of beans difference in this application.
