I have the Injen Cold Air intake... the chrome down pipes look great. Also the red fittings(Vacuum lines and clamps fit with the look of my engine compartment.
but you cannot see the intake nor the downpipes unless you are either under the car(downpipes) or unless you took off the center panel(intake). or do you mean you have a chromed Y pipe. which does not seem right, because they are rubber. and the downpipes, AKA test pipes do not come in chrome because they get so hot the chrome would just flake off anyways?? you lost me man.
the pipes that come down from the throttle bodies are chrome.... they arent flaking and dont receive direct heat so it shouldnt be a problem..... sorry you got lost man
i go strictly for power and performance mods. shiney shit does not make you go fast so i do not even bother. i got a set of sheep dog BOV's recently, sweet sound, good spool up time. gotta love turbos. but i had an NA at one time too, nice car for crusing but it does not have that throw you back in your seat power that a TT does.
