I have had TSP True duals twice in the midwest for all the rain snow and salt. They held up great the first time until i sold the car. I liked them enough to buy them again and they are holding up just as good this time also. My vote is just toss them on and enjoy making enemies in the neighborhood.

Definitely Paint them! And dont use just any high heat paint. I would reccomend using VHT's Flameproof ceramic coating spray paint http://www.vhtpaint.com/flameproof.html . The ceramic coating will keep the exhaust gasses heated and mobilized creating a scavenging effect (more flow) and we all know More flow = More go! This is what I plan on doing.
