Looks good, I looked online at a spot called endure coatings in mesquite and they actually had some color on an exhaust setup. all the way from the cat to the tip, looked pretty sick. I know it is just an exhaust and nobody will see it but if my car wasn't black and I was going for a color scheme besides jet black all the way thru I'd do this. I want the bugs to say "DAAAAAAMMMMMMNNNNNN" when I roll overem. Appreciate your help, did you use scotch brite or a certain grit sand before you put on the coating?

Do you know if LineX will hold up in those temps? Might sound like a dumb question but I have to ask.

Just get some rattle can vht. I promise mufflers won't get near hot enough.

**El_Tortuga** · 08-25-2013, 06:38 PM

VHT for me.

Looks great and no issues 6 months later. I only wish I had painted them before they went on the car.

**Dan12GT** · 08-25-2013, 11:31 PM

Ya the mufflers won't get near as hot and should hold up with some high temp paint no problem. I would just afraid of it chipping from debris kicking up being only a paint under the car.

**BlueBolt** · 08-26-2013, 12:24 PM

VHT here also. If it chips where you can see it just touch it up.
