    I think I didn't let it fully cure. The tip started to fade towards the edge of the tip lol. Not super bad but enough for me to notice.

    I might redo the tip. We will see lol. Or just matte black it! That would be easier.

    That black pipe looks really good. Might have to take mine off. I've got black tips on a cat back, but now the pipes are really bugging me.

    Here's a shot. Hard to tell it's darker but in person you can tell its tinted. I should have put more layers to make it darker. I may remove it to add more shadow spray. You can kinda see in this picture the tips are lighter closest to the end. Not sure if that's because I didn't wait for it to cure or that's just how it is.

    Thanks. Put more coats if you want it more black. And let it cure at least 24 hours before running it hot. Those are the two things I would do If I had to redo them.

    I left the thread and came back.

    My wife bought me a bull bar for my anniversary. Maybe I'll do the tips to see what they look like and if I like it maybe I'll do the bull bar.

    It may be a good look
