#105383, "BBQ paint - do it"


          

Shiny mufflers are pretty but they increase the risk of grabbing the wrong person's attention.

Here is an Espelir cat back.


On a black car it becomes a focal point, especially when the angle of the sun is just right and it becomes a mirror.




Muffler was sanded down with fine grit paper


Then masked off things and painted with Krylon $4 flat black bbq paint.







It's almost invisible in the sun now, just like the blacked out front mount and projectors. Ez's tip of the day is: do this.

Thanks guys. I love it -> was walking back to my car today from the grocery store and the 2g looked like a little stealth fighter in the parking lot. It just sinks into the shadows.
