Opinions on Stacks

[powerstroke_n]

Aluminum stacks. Whats ya'lls opinion. It's only going to be the stacks the rest of the pipe would be either stainless or aluminized steel. I'm not really wanting a lot of shine on this truck like you get with chrome but on the same token I don't want them to just blend in as evening falls or being hard to see with whatever is in the background. I'm thinking of going with a brushed or satin finish something just enough to get noticed. Straight cut with raincaps just because I don't see a lot of those kind of pipes.

different for sure, should look nice.

You can get stainless in a brushed or satin finish too. Aluminum will oxidize over time. If you find polished stainless just use a DA sander on it and it will give you a much duller brushed look and the finished look will last much longer than aluminum.

Aluminum is not going to be nice to deal with in time. Go with a brushed stainless steel. It will have the satin look you are wanting and will stay the same for many years to come.

+1 on stay away from aluminized for the parts of the exhaust that will be seen by others

I used aluminum from the down pipe all the way to both stacks. They are no problem to keep looking good.
