Sure, why not? Just find some kind of thin silver pipe and trim it.

GO TO RADIO SHACK!!!
hey there, i am totally into bits ever since i laid eyes on then in Velocity mag. Anyhoo, your question about mufflers, you can get stuff called 'aluminum spacers' from radio shack. they only cost about 3 bucks and they can be stacked to imitate a muffler, on the plus side if you make 2, like my NSX, they act as a wheelie bar. try it out
