Photoshoppers! Painted exhaust?
i have a 2004 Anthracite metallic TL. im getting the type-s exhaust put on her soon and was wondering if anyone else had this setup, and if so, could someone photoshop diff colors (bronze, gun metal, black, AM) onto a AM tl.
i love colored exhaust but idk if any look good on this color.

thanks in advance! your doin me a big favor of not wasting money.

lol yeah you could do this on Need for Speed Underground. I have never seen a car with a painted exhaust so you would definitely get points for being different! But my response if I saw a TL with a painted exhaust is probably laughter. No. Just no.

There was someone with an AM TL that had their ATLP quads powdercoated flat black and I think it looked sick.

The BMW 335is has black tips too. It works for it, but I'm not sure it'd look as nice on a luxury sedan.

I'm sure it would look player on your SSM

no no no, he was asking for a picture of your car with the exhaust visible so that he could photoshop it black.

No, you asked where you could find the titanium burnt tips.......
talk to our vendors....I'm sure Richie can hook you up with the tips. or can point you in the right direction.

Richie is playing around with tit. Burnt tips and black chrome tips. Im giving you a starting point on where to find/how to achieve the look that you asked for.
give him a call, its really not that hard to ask.
