    LOL, I actually flew back a foot or two but that made me laugh.

    So I cleaned them up with a copper wire brush atachment for a drill, cleaned it up almost the best I could.

    I dont really like the way they look lol. Too shiny/bright. Doesnt look good on an all black car.

    Anyone paint there exhaust tips black? I think I am going too!

    The inside of your tips will be black from carbon within a week. Just leave it. I'd put a layer of clear paint on the lip, though, after a good polish.
