Default repainting RS*R EXmag

Just like the topic says, what kind of paint would you use? Brand new they are a graphite-ish flat black...not totally black, so using a regular flat black spray paint wouldnt retain the stock look.

The reason behind this is becuase the exhuast is starting to rust in some areas, and I really like this exhuast, and would love to keep it for as long as I keep the car.

remove the old black paint and it should be polished underneath it...not 100% sure but give it a try. when rsr's were first brought into the USA back around 94...carboy and robocar used to remove the ceramic black coating and sell them for a little more since they were bling bling underneath...

your local pepboys or kragen should have ceramic flat black...but i've noticed that after awhile, the ceramic black rattle can paint turns gray over a period of time with heat on the muffler. if you can't find the paint locally, try jegs.com or summitracing.com. they have that paint for sure...
