I thought about that... although it might work for the specific application I'm looking into I'm also wanting to black chrome some more stuff to match up..... sadly they are plastic and I cannot powdercoat plastic.

haha mikeloc, i do not know where to get things powder coated but my stock mufflers came powder coated when i got them. one is even missing a muffler tip, so one looks bigger than the other

i can show you a picture of my black mufflers if you'd like, just pm. me.

Sorry dude, this post went by me. Nah, don't bother posting up pics, I know what it looks like...I just want to know what shops do the work. I know what mufflers I want, I just don't want the big shiny cans showing under my car, looks too aftermarket if you kow what I mean. Plus it'll attract the eyes of cops. But a black muffler with a nice stainless steel tip...now that's sexy and incognito!
