    I was going to get a tail pipe cover, but then I thought why not just paint the bare pipe with VHT black paint. I am just wanting to do the end maybe a foot or so, has anyone done this and any reason not to?

    **edit** I reread you just meant the tailpipe. Have not done this

    I have done this to my chrome Toyota tip. I sanded, primed and VHT black. I do have mudflaps, they still look new as day one. It has been 8 months

    I added a black chrome tip to extend a few inches because the exhaust was discoloring the paint.
