What does this look like?
 
This is just a swipe of my fingers inside my tailpipe. Does this look like there is a problem or does it look normal?

The second one is without the flash because the flash kinda washed out the soot.

Dude! Keep them outta your tailpipe, you don't know where those fingers have been!!!

Actually it's perfectly normal. Now if that is up the back bumper, or covering the outside of the tailpipe, then there's a problem with your air/fuel mixture. Remember:
White smoke = water
Blue smoke = oil
Black smoke = unburned gas
