yeah i had thought of that idea, any issues with it chipping or anything? i used to have a lowered pickup with side pipes painted black and they chipped like a mofo lol. always trying to touch up the chips respraying it.
i did work on cleaning it up last night, used the eagle polish that you tear a piece off and polish with it. used some barkeepers also with a scrub sponge. it improved it, still not shiny but good enough i think. i could only reach the pipes up just past the front of the axle, had it on a couple boards in garage and still kinda low to get under there. good enough. then i got under the whole car with a hose and sprayed the whole underbody.
kinda irritating the previous owner was supposedly a collector and did not clean under the body, he never drove it with only 7 miles on it when i got it. everything else looked brand new. even the plastic was on the radio screen.
how does the black suitcase look against the chrome tips? think i will leave mine alone for now, but that is an option. did you also paint the pipes up till the axle or just the suitcase?
