Hey guys,
Unfortunately I noticed I had a nice paint chip on my exhaust tip yesterday. It's about the size of a nickel so its not that big of a deal but its still there. I want to repaint it but I don't want to buy just any paint that will have a different look. Hopefully you guys can recommend something that looks or is the same.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot!

 

I'd repaint both to match. Tape up everything you don't want painted. Sand down the chipped tip. Use high heat spray paint. There's a simple solution.

 

That kind of looks like paint failure/flaking rather than a chip. JayunsPlanet's advise is good. Not sure how hot the tips really get but something like black BBQ paint should work but may be more glossy than OEM. You can also probably find hi-heat black at any good auto parts store. Just remember cleanliness is next to godliness when painting otherwise the new paint will probably flake right off.

 

you wont notice it after a few miles

 

If your car is still under warranty you should be able to get it replaced without charge.

 

Thanks a lot everyone. Great advice and I will post results when I get it done.
