A couple of things you might think about. Consider leaving some ventilation holes for keeping the batteries cooler. Same issue with black paint. LiFePO4 cells have a top suggested operating temperature of 140 degrees F. Black paint along with the battery heat itself would likely approach that level inside the battery box on a good sunny day.
