Looks good! I did mine with PlatiDip when I did my badges and rims. I added a coat or 2 of glossifier to them too for a touch of shine.

How does the plasti dip hold up? I just got my new dynomax catback and want to paint the 4" tips black. Wanted to powdercoat but will save me $50 or so to paint them myself. My stock tips get very warm... burn my hands at a quick touch. Figured plasti dip wouldn't hold up to we'll as that temp.

I thought about using 500*F gloss black paint as well. Plasti dip is nice bc i can take it off if I don't like it.

I had the flat in the garage. Seeing how it holds up and may add gloss black if they have it in high temp. I sanded the gunk off and roughed them up a little then primered and painted with the high temp paint I had. If the primer holds up to the temp I will do it gloss black high temp. If it doesn't I may end up powder coating them. I just didn't want them chrome/stainless anymore.
