I didn't do anything special - just wiped the muffler and exhaust stub with some Super Sani-Cloth wipes that I had in the garage. Since it's only about 3 weeks old, there was very little grime built up. Then I used part of a $4 can of Rustoleum high-temp matte black paint that's suitable for grills. Really, the overzealous masking took much longer than the painting.

painted mine red http://oi62.tinypic.com/2vhyjw1.jpg used krylon fusion for plastic, you can also just use any bedliner for black though, the fusion comes in just about every color jeeps come in, except ghekko and a few of the other neon pastels. prep was easy, just dawn dishsoap and water 50/50 and brillo pad to degunk anything left on it from when it was made, and after a rinse and dry i hit it with rubbing alc and a rag to get anything left from washing it/touching it.
My rubicon came pretty much perfect from the factory as far as the outside goes, but I couldnt take the white inside top when its otherwise black and red!
I am also redoing the seat stitching with red sharpies, because the silver thread offends me http://oi57.tinypic.com/nz0soi.jpg both front seats "Rubicon" done, working on the billion little stitches over the next month or so....
