Exhaust paint

My exhaust pipe is looking a little corroded and it looks goofy with my chrome tips. If i spray the pipes with some high heat paint in the silver color, do you think it will look better and keep its color?

^ How often do you look at your pipes?

Yes you can use some hi-temp paint. Just be sure to prep the surface so you don't have to keep going out there are adding coats.

Keep in mind, that painting the exterior does not guarantee corrosive protection. The interior of the aluminized piping can deteriorate from condensation and weaken the steel over a few years use. If you are just embarrassed of a little rust on the visible tailpipe under the frame through the wheel well and around the spare, hi-temp paint them.
