Go to your local hardware store and pick up some High-heat Rustoleum. They have it in silver and it will also prevent any rust from forming. Good luck!

Try your local airport

If you cant find heat tolerant paint to your liking at the hardware store, try a local municipal airport that deals with small aircraft like cessnas. Go to one of the maintenance shops and ask around. I used to work at one and dealt with all sorts of heat resistant paints and materials. They may be able to help u out..

Talking vht

Go to your local speed shop and ask for VHT brand paint.
I used it on my exhaust manifolds for my 64 falcon, and it still looks like I just sprayed it on.

Ricekicker,

I tried the hardware store, they didn't have anything that would work. Only (mostly black) paint for BBQ grills was available and somehow I don't think that going to look too nice on the exhaust pipes LOL.

Inclinator,

I'll try the airport since there is a private one about 4 blocks from here.

My97,

What category would a "speed shop" be listed in the Yellow Pages? Maybe I'm not thinking the same thing as you are. I've stopped by a couple imports places and when I told them I drive a Ford they were like "Who? What? WTF!". They had anything from neon lights to turbos to more lights. I've also stopped by several 4x4 shops and they had everything from brush guards to taillights guards and everything in between but no paint.

Thanks all for the replies.

I was able to find VHT at Pep Boys and R&S SStrauss.
