What do you mean? I painted my chrome pipes black with high temp spray paint. You can have them powder coated or ceramic coated in just about any color you can think of...

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind when I do my winter projects. I dont want a fresh light copper. Can you do an old, brown patinad copper?

That bottle looks amazing, BTW.
