New Exhaust Colour (painted) (Pics Added)
 
Well today i was bored and i was in Bunings and in the paint section. I have a 2002 4.4 x5 with no sports pack. So it has the normal 4.4 exhausts that are kind of a grey colour and you can see the silver behind the pipes which really dosnt look that good. So purchased some high heat Black Metallic paint for the exhausts. So i washed the car and then drive it around to dry her off. Then i taped up around the exhausts and sprayed away. So now i have shiny black exhausts like the 4.4 with sports pack. In the near future i am going to buy some chrome tips for her so it will look all good.

Ill post some new pics soon

I think the unpainted look is awful. Good idea, can't wait to see how it turned out.

I would get a pic now but its 11.00 pm and cold so you wouldnt be able to see them. The paint i got is shiny so they look like the stock sport exhausts. In the near future i am going to get Chrome tips, profile2000 racks, 20' 4.8 rims and spray up the under spoiler silver to look like the 4.8 rear.
