Sure just got to Pep-Boys and get a blue touch up pen, or go to Walmart and get one of those blue paint markers for a few bucks. I just happened to have one on hand

Ive actually done this already. The easiest way to do it is just purchase the Nismo S Tune sticker set. The NISMO sticker in that package is a perfect fit over the NISMO logo on the muffler.

I don't think it's ricey at all. I think it looks good.

GMZ - How did you paint the shift **** so nicely? Those pen are either like white out pens or highlighters. How did you get paint in such detail with pens like that?

When you spend more then 20 minutes on a little mod that only 3 people will notice it can be a little ricey.

Its his car he can do what he wants, Nothing wrong with rice anyway... I am making some for dinner tonight in fact!!

On the shifter I just let a little paint( from the nissan paint pen) go all through the grooves then wiped it up from the smooth part with a q-tip soaked in alcohol, easy Rice? Idunno I thought the muffler looked plain and too stockish, so I wanted to spice it up! When your driving or anyplace besides a meet who can tell if its painted or an emblem? I was bored after waxing the car okay?!?! I like it, well liked it. The new owner of the exhuast likes it as well

Ah, I haven't thought about that. I think it looks good and if you like it, that's all that matters. I personally think that's better than the stock nismo look.
