Remember the discussion about the exhaust mufflers being painted satin black and to what extent painted... whole can or just the end portion where the tips are?? I think I started it when I showed this pic>>

Several commented that the cans were not painted (except the end piece) and thus why are the ones on my ZR painted. I said they were painted and I refreshed the paint and pointed to a picture in the Heart of the Beast where a ZR was on the assembly line and it had the entire cans painted. No big deal just another mystery detail...then I spotted this on fleabay. Someone was/is selling OEM left over straight from the factory exhausts... note the cans>>>

Dunno...another manufacturing inconsistency?
