I wanted to do this since I got the exhaust. I loved the CNC'd end caps and didnt want to paint them when I did the cans, as I Love the machined look. So... I decided a bit of black would finish up the system well.

I tried taping the lines first then painting but that didnt work that well (really hard to line up the masking tape with the line in the metal). So I just did these 100% free hand. I am not the "artsy" type nor do I have all that much patience but i managed to finish both tonight.

They are still drying so there area few little spots to touch up and remove where I went over a tad.

I like how they turned out so thought I would throw some pics on here



O...and this Pic is for Sand84... This is as good as your going to get.
38 Double D's are hard to capture in such a small picture :)



If anyone wants to copy me feel free... Its really not 100% as hard as it looks (not easy..but not hard). There is ONE stipulation if you paint your...you have to put the end caps on your girlfriends boobs - Madonna style :lol:

Thanks for the offer Jake but i need to get new stainless screws for them as I stripped a few out trying to get them out originally. I plan to use loc-tite on them so i know if i re-use the same screws they will never come out again!

And lol @ the karma. I get all the karma I need   :thumbs:
