Default Black Exhaust?
Any companies that make an after market exhaust with Black tips? Not Black like the stock tips but something that's nice....either Gloss or even a Matte Black but with bigger, round tips?

Looking at pictures of Pewter vettes with black wheels got me thinking that a nice dual outlet black tipped exhaust would really add to the sinister looks.

That sounds bad a$$. Here is a photochop I just did of mine, looks sweet. Now just need to find someone to do it. Would really look nice on a black Vette.

Black chrome tips are available, my husband has them on his car. He really wants dull black tips if he can ever find them.

This mod will be on my home DIY powder coating list along with my wheels. I'll post back to this thread when I get then done on my 98 black vert.
