Default Sonic 31 and nose cones?

I did a search on cones and got some threads suggesting in some applications the cones add too much stearn lift and slow the boat down. anyone running cones on a 31? did they effect the boat in any bad ways? I really dont need them from the speed angle running under 80 but I'm going to paint my drives this winter and thought it would be a good time to add them if nothinh else the look cool.

How do you paint your drives so it will actually stay on?

I put them on mine, but at the same time did motors and blowers so I cannot give any specific data on gains or losses with just the cones.
