If you are unable to locate black pipes, look into having yours powder coated. Had mine done a few years ago, they turned out nice and have held up well.
Were the chrome pipes on the 2014 models quiet like those in 2013, or louder like the later models?
I had these coated in February 2016. They are not stock pipes but are indicative of how well coating holds up. None of the pipes get hot enough to affect the surface. The chrome will need to be blasted for adhesion but that can be done by your coater.

another option is to lightly sand the stock chrome ones with ultra fine sandpaper (to scuff them up for paint adhesion), and then paint them with the heat tolerant paint, such as VHT brand paint. I did that on mine and its holding up well. I did two coats of the black VHT satin, and then coat of clear coat VHT satin.
