    That would be awesome. I would really like to see what it looks like.

    I think I will just sand it down a bit and then just use the ceramic paint since it seems to be the best choice.

    i think the olny good color for a tail pipe is chrome or metal but if you r gunna paint it only do black because any other color will look like you got a cheap paint job and they forgot to mask off the tailpipe but ya black could look cool though

    The wind died down so I was able to start it... I'll eventually paint the entire system.
