Im curious if anyone has painted their exhaust muffler can/tip black. If so, please post some pictures and if you chose glossy or flat paint.

I was thinking about this yesterday. There was a Yellow EVO posted not too long ago with a black N1-esque muffler.

I'm almost positive you can buy them black, but I'm not sure where from....

I know some can be purchased in black but I already have a system. I have a Megan which I like, Im just not too crazy about the 'can'. Ive never really liked the look of the can-style mufflers, perhaps too many ricers ruined it for me.

why would all of you want to paint your muffler black? to me that seems like you havent cleaned it in awhile. imo but if you guys like it go for it.

Like I said, Im not a fan of can-style mufflers so even clean, shiny ones dont look that great to me. Basically, Im trying to make it less noticeable by painting it black.

Anjapower, that looks good!
