0 Tony B Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 There are exhaust paints available. Not a subject I've ever thought of, you could add a bright shiny chrome bit. :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sirhc Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 Have the pipes sand blasted and then paint with Factory Manifold Grey from Frosts. I did this to the exhaust parts on both my Ferret and Land Rover. Both still look as good as the day I fitted them. You'll need to give it 2 coats and then get it nice and hot by running the engine to allow the paint to cure. http://frost.resultspage.com/search?w=manifold+grey I tried the black version of this paint, called Black Velvet, on the Fox, which has started going rusty already. The grey stuff is better. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 woa2 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Paint it Black if you want Bullshit finish with shiny paintwork, or leave it rusty finish if you want it 'in service' is my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
