Painted or ceramic pacesetters hey guys im looking at getting some pacesetter longtube headers. obviously the ceramic coated ones are better but are the painted really that bad? i'm a poor college kid with a lot of school loans to pay back so im trying to keep the price down quite a bit. if i end up with the painted ones, would a can of heat resistant paint help the rust problem and make them last longer? thanks

Get ceramic.. as blk/slvr02ss said you'll need an over to really get that paint to adhere to the surface! Spend the money now to get the ceramic coated ones n never look back!

as you and everyone here knows stainless is the way to go, but i can appreciate a college person on budget. the ceramics will last you a few years which is a decent amount of time (can save for stainless lol). like said before, painted will not only rust but deteriorate before you kno it. remember, you get what you pay for..
