I don't think silver/ unpainted headers would look nice on my bike or else I would have done that. There's also the issue of rust forming on them if I just leave them without paint.

I'm kind of at a loss at what I could do other than pay someone to paint them with ceramic paint, or just try and repaint them with HT paint again. It's a shame black ninja 250 pipes in stock condition are nonexistent
