Opened Up Exhaust Pipes

[JoeCPA]

I didn't care for the ends of the exhaust pipes on the Cobra model as supplied, especially how they were closed off with just the hint of an opening in the chromed inside.  So I took a small drill and drilled out the inside.  Then used a needle file to smooth the openings and scrape off the chrome plating on the inside so paint would stick better.  Then I painted the inside with flat black paint.  I didn't need to drill all the way through, just drilled into the pipes enough to give the impression that they are actual pipes.  Much more realistic I think.

This is one of the best mods you can do.  It's easy and looks great.  You've made a great job of drilling out the ends of the pipes and getting and even wall thickness.
