I have a muffler delete and i don't even think that its "freaking loud"..
i have a CNT HFC. i believe thats the key to it being loud. it made my stock nismo exhaust quite a bit louder already. my entire cabin vibrates around 3k RPM and on decel until 1k RPM. i cant even accelerate quitely and have to quickly get to 4th gear if i want to be reasonable for my neighbors lol

yes i understand that. did quite a bit of research on this actually. the g37 guys had a thread about it and plastidip will keep its properties until 200F. our mufflers even after extended driving and hard runs will nearly hit 120F. it has quite a bit of time to travel from the exhaust manifold to the muffler so it cools significantly. i drove around for a day (for an hour north, hour back home) and the muffler was hot to the touch, but not burning hot. i could safely put my palm on it so i decided to go ahead and paint it

I know it's not a Z but I did a full dip of my beater truck for fun. The gallons of sprayable dip are so easy to use. I have ZERO car painting experience and this came out awesome!

Interested to see how you taped this off. How'd you remove tap without peeling the dip?

Maybe a red?
