Default NEW pipe black or chrome you be the judge!

Getting rid of the Rineharts and going to the D&D FatCat. Cant decide between the chrome or satin black pipe. You be the judge. Keep in mind the black is satin against the gloss vivid black.

Chrome exhaust would look better on your bike than flat black. You have enough chrome on your engine and wheels that the flat black exhaust wouldn't look quite as good as the chrome. Now if you are considering to black out your chrome wheels the flat black exhaustwould probably look better than chrome exhaust. Sounds like you are alreadyhave a concern abouthowthe black satinwould look against thegloss vivid black color. What performance gains do you expect by switching to the D&D FatCat?

I am not sure about the gains but I know there better thay the TD's hopefully by enough to make it worth it. I am looking into the numbers.
