yes, I think anyone with a canister exhaust with a big tip should do whatever they can to make it less conspicuous nowadays

Not carbon. Yeah paint it all black. Because first of all I am not a big fan of crome and I think a black can not only would look nicer but would atract less atention. Now I know when I say less atention I mean less because its not shiny but I still have a big can n tip. When I end up doin it ill post up pics. Well see what I looks like. ***good I hope****

Yea i bought mine used so the carbon fiber part has some glue or some crap on it so if yours comes out good I might just have to be completely unoriginal and bite off you. Hope you dont mind......
