Looks good.
I see your carbon fiber is turning colors like mine.
Would look good painted black.

How does it sound?
and
How long did it take ya?

Thanks! took i think around an hour...didnt really keep track....actually really easy to do im sure anyone with a drill, rivet gun, and hack saw,(and a lil mechanical know how) can do it. ya the exhaust and tail are awaiting a paint job. did you paint yours i was thinking about it but not sure how it would turn out?

No, I haven't painted mine.
I'm not sure how it would turn out either.
I like the look of the carbon fiber...but no the look of how it changed color.
So I was thinking a high-temp flat black would look pretty sick.

So besides cutting it and replacing the end spout, was there anything else you did?

i had to remove a little bit of the fiber stuff in there to allow the end to seat in there and stay put. with out some of that stuff removed it would seat then get pushed back up before i could drill and rivet. ya i really want to paint it im sure it would keep the fiber look. I just have no clue how well the paint will stick to it. this is the first mod ive done to my bike though. next will be the undertail.
