Need to paint muffler "sleeve", what paint to use
My 5th gen SE came with the sleeve that goes over the two exhaust tips. Well all the winters have killed it and it's quite ugly. I took it off and need to paint it.
Can anyone recommend a good paint that can withstand the temperatures, look good, and last for a long while (assuming it's prepped and painted correctly)
Hoping to paint mine something that looks close to what the car did when it was new..."stainless" color I guess.
Thanks!

You know you can get get some cheap screw on tips from autozone. Might look better that a rattle can paint job.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was going to get some tips from autozone but they are just cheap and would probably just out again real quick, that's why I was thinking about painting them for something that lasts a little longer.
If I did get the magnaflow tips (they are stainless) does anyone know the measurements required for the stock SE tips. I measured about 3" ID and 7" long. Anyone confirm or know which magnaflow is right?
Also, any tips on where to get them. Will post pics if I paint
