Do it yourself..... Get them blasted,then fill any dents/hero rash etc etc and then on a nice sunny day.... (if we get one!!!) spray with bbq paint. Job done....

I got some exhaust paint from yambits. It cost about the same as BBQ paint but gives the satin finish that looks original. ;D

What's the best choice? original re-furbished exhausts, or short can Gibson's ? I have the latter fitted at the moment and they do look good, but the original ones will finally make my bike a proper LC, now that I have ditched the Rentec rad guard and put the original one on. Which has more LC cred?

I haven't filled on the downpipe area,just left them as they are. Have heard a lot of people say problems around that area with filling.
