Blacked Out Exhaust Tips

Not a huge fan of the stainless exhaust tips after they have seen some miles and become tarnished. Wanted to see if anyone knew of some aftermarket exhaust tips that are blacked out and fit our car. Worse comes to worse, I suppose they can be painted. Saw a thread where someone did that and they looked decent enough. PITA though...

Just another option: I have had black Plastidip on the exhaust tips and muffler of my current car for nearly 2 years now and it has held up great. No peeling or discoloration.

+1 for PD it will be nice and clean chrome under when you peel it off.

Don't do anything they'll turn black all by themselves.

While this is very true, I did find that this product was the best for cleaning my MCS exhaust
