Title: Dual muffler Post by: low61 on September 27, 2016, 10:14:22 am Hi!
I want to mount a CSP Dual Muffler on my ´61 bug, but I want to paint the mufflers black except for the pipes. How far would it be correct to Keep the pipes unpainted? Should the paint just go to the curve of the pipes or is there a certain dimension? Or is it all just a matter of taste? I have tried out to find samples in old pictures, but it seems that there is everything possible, starting from completely unpainted to total black.

Cut the tips off, have them chromed and weld them back on. Why? The exhaust is made of stainless steel, that' s shiny aus chromed! Title: Re: Dual muffler Post by: Helge/DFL on October 19, 2016, 08:23:21 am This is my 62 ragtop, with a CSP-dual-muffler. Now in black coated.
