Default flat black exhaust tips

I've been working on getting all the chrome off my car and the last thing that needs to be changed are my exhaust tips. I love my Borla exhaust but just not a fan of the Chrome tips.

Anyone have a pictures and/or recommendations on quality brand?

Thanks,

Why don't you just paint them with flat black engine enamel.

Plastidip them. Seems like the "in" thing to do nowadays.

I'll look into both of those options. As far as both are concerned, will they stick to chrome without scuffing it up first?

DON'T plasti dip them. It will burn off. yes you must scuff the chrome. But your are trying to get rid of the chrome so the point is moot.
