Default Exhaust powder question

I have noticed black exhaust being pretty common now. One thing I haven't seen yet, and it strikes me odd, is why nobody with a color other than black has powdered their pipes a different color. Maybe it would look lame or whatever, but I see many mods being done to bikes on here and the exhaust remains the consistent:


Chrome

Black

Wrapped.





Any reason? Or am I missing pictures...watching all the chopper shows the last few years I don't remember seeing it done on those odd builds.


Random thoughts.

Could you do satin chrome like on the stock rocker boxes and mufflers on the 2010 Fat Boy Lo?
