AKRAPOVIČ EXHAUST SYSTEMS
Akrapovič, the benchmark in the exhaust manufacturing industry. The brand is synonymous with the highest level of design, performance enhancement and the creation of an unmistakable deeply resonant exhaust sound. Akrapovič products are designed and manufactured for performance vehicles by a passionate and highly-skilled workforce of over 800 employees using the latest technology, processes and finest materials. The Racing R&D department works with dozens of racing teams with over 90 world championships.
Akrapovič Slip-On Line
The Akrapovič Slip-On Line for the Porsche 911 Turbo / Turbo S is the first stage in the exhaust tuning process and gives this already outstanding car a further step in performance. Made from a high-grade titanium alloy and finished with exquisitely handcrafted carbon fibre and titanium tailpipes, the Slip-On Line reduces weight to aid with handling. Akrapovič’s sound engineers have also created a deep and unique sound to make the Porsche 911 Turbo / Turbo S stand out even more. The Slip-On Line can also be used in conjunction with the optional Akrapovič link pipes—with or without cats—which can be added to the system to take the performance to another level. The Slip-On Line is superbly finished with a coating to give greater durability, without altering the look or performance of the system.

Because it's a very smooth surface I'm sure it would need to be prepped. Since the majority of what I've seen have left this piece in carbon fiber, I would just say bring it to a shop that can do paint work and see what they recommend, but it's likely it needs at least some sort of prep before shooting it with paint.
