yeah done mine years ago. Wire wool to prep and spray
 
hi did you them off the car or on if off how do you get them off ?
 
I just dropped off the rubbers so was hanging down and taped rear with news paper and masking tape
 
hi did you use heat resistant spray paint or just normal spray paint
 
Over the years used, Hammerite smooth, VHT paint, and just plain satin black.. never a issue with any and just redo as need mayeb every 1-2 years
 
Just my opinion but with your car being white I completely get the white and black theme (mines the same) but doing you pipes black imo will make them disappear visually

I use this stuff on a damp cloth every now and again only £3

Really easy to keep them clean then.
