So I've got a Psycho with the Prima pipe. Good looking pipe and nowhere near as loud as some of my other scoot's exhausts. Sounds good and not raspy.
Saw a few posts about people wanting to get rid of the chrome look of the stainless steel.
Couldn't really find any results much less long term.
Not horrible looking but the going stands out like a sore thumb on the all black and matte black Psycho.
Ive got a Ceramic black coating on a Leo Vince pipe on one of my Aprilia SR50s, and a BBQ black rattle can coating on a modified Honda Metro pipe which looks fine also.
Was also thinking of maybe an exhaust wrap in black but not crazy about wrapping the whole can other than the headers.
Just wondering if anyone has any results of painting the polished stainless and how it sticks.
Trying to do it myself rather than spending a ton on ceramic coating it!
Thanks

So then you've got black on black. What's wrong with the existing chrome/stainless steel pipe finish? For me, it makes for a nice contrast.CountChocula wrote:So I've got a Psycho with the Prima pipe.
