No need for high temp paint on the tip if its a stock exhaust system, it won't get hot enough to warrant it.

Can someone post a pic of theirs painted? I have the Roush dual exit rear exhaust on mine. I'd like to paint em black as my truck is a blackout. It's the last bit of chrome left on my truck
