Is there anything your local exhaust shop does so people know thats where you got your exhaust done. The place i got mine done at paints all the piping and muffler(s) black. I think it makes the exhasut look sweet. Does any one elses local shop do something similar to this?

That is usually a sign of trying to hide too many/messed up bends. I am not saying that is the case for your shop but I have been in the exhaust/repair business for 22 years and have only seen painting pipes to hide something.


I do think the blacked out pipes look good though, all mine are done in black.
