Have a look at the attached picture of the GSXR6 I've just bought. Anyone know what type of paint I need to use to reapply the black to the pipe that sits in front of the end can?

Thanks.

Tin of Halford high temp paint will do the trick. Has an exhaust manifold picture on the front.

I did the whole exhaust on mine early Winter. Really nice even matt black finish.

May need to stick a few coats on though, as I found 1 will not be enough to make a good layer.
