depends on the look u r going for. mine has true fire on it because i wanted it kind of flashy but if i didnt do that the best one ive ever seen what a satin black and had the logos sanded off. looked like a stock manifold. great look imo.

I finally did mine. I prefer the OEM black look. Certainly not for everyone, but I prefer it better than the stock FAST color.

IMO, you can't go wrong with either gloss black or silver...I prefer the smooth look with the lettering sanded off...

that "stock" looking one is a cool idea, very stealthy. If you want a more custom and clean look tho, id say go with a satin or gloss black. Only reason i say satin is because if you dont have a lot of other glossy or polished pieces under the hood it might stick out too much
