Two Brothers is the only one that came with cans, to my knowledge. I take it the headers are not doublewall, and so likely blued? Like these (not much of a view, but rear)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocO9uUI1DY8 Of course, I suppose they could be home made.

Jess and meathead no they don’t look like either of those they are 4” all the way from what looks like the stock heat shield back at least 36” long mufflers The headers are rusted bad I am not sure they were chrome, you can look in the 4” outlets and see baffles

Sounds like someone put truck stacks on stock exhaust.

It’s definitely not stock exhaust the header pipe configuration isn’t even the same and they’re not 4 inch stack slipped over mufflers their chrome mufflers with a bracket that bolts them right to the bike like the original exhaust

Some trike manufactures made their own exhaust systems. California Side Car was one of them. Who's trike kit do you have? I have a Lehman kit for my Valkyrie and a Motor Trike for my Goldwing. Greg

Lots of guys (and other than Valks) have had good success getting single wall headers powder-coated a high heat silver/gray, and ceramic coating is supposed to be the best. I really have no idea about nice heat shields for the tight 6 pipe headers. Bright silver ceramic coating.
