I think it makes the car look higher off the ground. Some people paint their black side skirts to give the car a lower appearance, this is just the opposite.
Also, I'm no artist, but if I was to do it, I would only black out from the curved section down (about 2/3's up the pipe tip),
I wouldnt black out any panel that is flat. Does that make any sense? I think it will look weird if it ends color abruptly, but not surface.
Ok, I need to get more ethanol* and coke now.
*grain alcohol now... cant get the 200proof any more
