S/C piping

[6spd]

hey guys i dont know if this was the right place but im sure someone will know or can help me out...

i just recently picked up a p1sc stg2 kit for my car and i was considering painting the piping all black... i was considering getting it powdercoated...or painting it myself, my question is :

is it even possible to paint these pieces myself? would i just use a high temp paint? or would i need to use something else?

the last thing id want is to do it myself and have the paint flake off slowly haha

thanks!

I tried painting mine and it didn't go well on the pieces I painted. The pipes can really get banged up. If you want a certain look, I'd just have the pieces you can see powder coated, if you're concerned about throwing alot of money at it.

its ok to paint nthem yourself. really easy. just make sure to prep, primer, then paint and use a clear coat. Before installing the pipes, wrap them up in plastic wrap or something so you dont scratch them all up.
