I know some people of painted it. I think you need to get a high-temp paint. Sorry, that's all I can remember, it's been a year since I last heard about someone doing it.

Use high temp black paint only. If you use the silver ones, usually it will rust over time. Make sure you sand the ypipe down and clean it before painting. I just did mine last weekend and it looks great.
