Black pipe questions!
Ok gang Ive got some questions.
I like the style of the D&D Fatcat 2into1's or the Bassani Road Rage in black as well but have heard the Bassanis have issues with their coating as well as their heat shields only being in chrome, not black. Um lame. I cant find the D&D's in black for my year, 2008.
I would like to hear your guys suggestions on this style. Who else makes black pipes that you all are happy with, heat wise, performance wise, etc..
I would also like to hear from you owners of the Bassani and Fatcats. Do you think they are too hot on the leg, did your coating wear off because it was cheap ceramic (or just paint) etc..

RE: Black pipe questions!
This winter, I had my heat shields powdercoated and I painted the mufflers with Krylon hi-temp BBQ black. I had a little discoloration on the heat shield right at the port (but it's still black). Other than that, no troubles as of yet.
