Muffler paint

Post by SlvrACR » Sun Mar 11, 2007 9:06 pm

I painted my stock Magnum Muffler. Do you guys think it looks crappy and I should just get it ceramic coated or would you rock it. Its just Stainless high temp like they use at muffler shops.

I can't stand being asble to see that huge thing back there, painting it flat black makes it less noticeable to the eye.

yea, not sure what you mean by "that look"

The look is... you can't see it.. or it doesn't grab your eye..

Has painting it black been mentioned yet? :)

I basically just painted the underside black so all i see are the chrome tips.

In other muffler news, has anyone seen the rear of the new Sebrings, that muffler is ginormous!

yeah..for flat black, just high heat engine enamel. I Think they even make one special for exhausts and headers and stuff to resist heat to 2500 degrees. I got the paint i used at advance for a few bucks and it looked great.
