My 73 914-2.0's HEs are original & now rusted through, so I picked up a pair of good used SSI HE's/exhaust pipes to not have that problem & CO poisoning issues ever again! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

My question is - should I leave them shiny, or paint them as per the stock OE mild steel ones, or does it matter in the CW world?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

If painted, is it the same flat gray hi-temp paint as used on the mufflers, as seen at the 356 Registry?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

They look like this now:

Thanx for your input!
