Question black/cf muffler question

I was just thinking how it looks with a big chrome muffler hanging off the car.... then i thought, what if it was a black or carbon fiber one? then maybe it wouldent look so big.
what do you guys and gals think? does anyone have one of those on their car?

i was gonna get an R-1 carbon fiber muffler but then thought not to cuz it would just be a waste since i will get a DC sports TCS sometime. i've seen them on some cars, looks good. depends on the color though, if you have a black or red car its looks sweet but on something like silver (which i have) i think chrome would look better but thats just my 2 pennies.

they are nice, yes!

but just think what i regular muffler or full system looks like when mud is flown up on the canister itself..

This grime crap will eat away the "fake" carbon fiber wrap around it..

i just say to get a nice stainless muffler or just save up for a full catback of your choice..

hope this helps!
