    I am going to look for that. I like how it sits flush with the bottom, some of the aftermarket ones have a funky little space.

    Nice find :D

    How long do you expect the paint to last? Did you prep the surface? Now that I think about it, I wonder how long engine or radiator paint would last on the exhaust tip... wonder what the temperature range is.

    Nice btw too.

    i do a lot of offroad and gravel driving. i dont expect it to last too long. few months maybe. then ill just spray it again. i didnt prep the surface either, just sprayed canned it. temperature isnt a huge issue on the exhaust tip, its the debris getting kicked up from the tire. and rust. took literally 45 seconds to spray it. thanks!

    Ive seen a bunch of flashlights mounted. I got this 100 lumen "Rayovac Indestructible LED 2AA Flashlight" for Christmas and saw another TW post where they mounted it in the console. Finally got it mounted using the clip from an old bike pump! It holds it perfectly. ha ha.
