I wasn't even gonna post this. but a buddy of mine did this also (after seeing mine), and thought it made a nice difference on his Black Max.
I got a few scratches from being "bumped" by an 18-wheeler some months ago, and got the back bumper touched up. While I was at it, I told (Apollo paint & body) to paint the muffler black. I thought it stuck out a little too much. (Just my .02) He did it for free.
Overall, I think it looks a little better especially if you have a dark Max.
It's been at least 6 months and no peeling or fading. The pic's aren't the best in the world, but this is what it looks like...

Yeah, you're right. You see just the pipes hanging out. Personally, I like it better than seeing the whole muffler. Something to do w/ the fact that the muffler is only on "one side" of the car. (not dual) But hey, that's just me...Originally posted by NT2SHBBY

Did that over a year and a half ago...hated the look of dingy/crappy tips, especially the downturned AE ones that you can see even more of.
Used high gloss black engine spray and haven't had to do a thing since to touch up or repaint.

Man, I'm not sure to be honest. The paint that was used on bumper was same as factory. (I checked). But not sure about the muffler. Originally posted by guapsnaman

I asked if the paint would start to flake off or discolor from heat and he said "No." He was right...
