Default Black wide ovals (ATT)

thinking of something different (out of the box)for my black tt. I purchased a used cargraphic exhaust to replace my fabspeed bypass and the chrome tips where alredy burned. Instead of buying new ones I brought them to a local powder coating shop who specializes on Harley Davidsons and ask him if he could strip and powdercoat it flat black for me. and for $50 bucks got me a gem

you guys have the lpmm I call these ATT (atan tips) jk

I wanted to do that to my M5 exhaust but I couldn't wait so I had them installed. Those flat black tips look BRUTAL!

EDIT: I know why I didn't do it. Because the powdercoating places I called said they won't do exhaust because it won't stand up to the heat. I guess tips are different.

Do the Satin Silver Tony!!! I forgot about that color until you posted the pics.

Nota - the local wheel shop told me they could not powdercoat the tips you sold to Tony. So it must be a TX thing.
