Default Painting Muffler

What would you guys think if I painted my stainless muffler to match my 35th LE red?

I'd paint them all the way up to the tips, and just leave the tips polished. Or???

Thoughts?

Uhm . . . NO.

If you must paint your muffler/exhaust, should use a subtle or metal color. Sure as grey, black, or silver.

It was just a random day dream I had yesterday for some reason. SatinBlack might be cool, but just a thought. I doubt I'd do it.

The Hooker Aerochamber mufflers come in a flat black finish. I think it looks good. Cleans up the rear of the car in my opinion.

As for red..... <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />
