I'm thinking about painting my sarachus flat black with high temp paint.  It seems like the aluminum gets dirty/spots easily.  What do you guys think?  Any pics?  Thanks.

I wouldn't. Also, alot of people have had problems painting their headers.
search for those threads.

the headers get much hotter than the silencers would. stock cans heat up more than aftermarket free flows like the Sarachus. Painting would be fine... but why on EARTH would you want to?

Aluminum seems a little out of place to me. Seems like it would flow much better if they were black to match the frame and what not.

It won't look good. It'll flake. You'll hate it. Don't do it.

Nice. I like the rim tape. Did you get those at www.tapeworks.com? I did that on my blue zx6r and looks good and reflects light too if you get the refective ones. Thinking about doing it on the 500r.

Get you some chrome levers , chrome or billet bar ends , and maybe polish the rim lips . BUT you would have to be insane to try to paint them black regardless if it'll work or not.

expensive.

I heart black exhaust. I will be getting the Sarachus, and the thought actually crossed my mine to paint them too... still dealing with that thought because i love the understated/blacked-out look. That being said, i dont mind the way they look now, and would HATE for them to turn out looking cheesey

If you was to do it , have them powder coated . They be done in almost any color you want.

yeah, something understated like BRIGHT NEON YELLOW[/color]... OF COURSE
