I can't imagine this being a good idea, but yeah
oh yeah, its good stuff, VHT header paint. Ive used it many times before, no issues.

Its dark now, so ill have to wait until morning. I can get some now in the garage, but you wont get the whole effect.

In for pics. My first honda had an RSR exhaust that had the flat black muffler as well. A more conservative look.

Oh yeah, its very concealing. I got too much of the feeling that the mufflers looked like giant balls hanging from the car, like those giant cow balls rednecks hang from their trailer hitches, or looking at a big dog from behind... anyway, best I can do for now:

Here they are. As you can see, they are well hidden and the tips look like they could be stock. All in all, I am very happy with the way this turned out!
