Default Anybody know what LT headers these are? (pics)

Anybody know what these are? I know they're not:
LG's, Kooks, Breathless Performance, TSP, and pretty sure they're not Stainless Works but not 100% sure. Anybody know?

I went to the TPiS website and these are very similarly shaped but theirs look ceramic coated (very shiny) while these look like stainless. These could be several yrs old so who knows which manufacturers did stainless and now don't

I've seen raw pipes before from them, same shape...

I don't know if ceramic coating is standard with them now or if it's still an option.

I hear their headers aren't bad..

I think they might be an older set of Stainless Works C5 headers.

True, they do appear similar to TPIS headers but as you said, those were usually coated mild steel, never stainless.

2nd that. TPIS never made SS.

In fact, that's pretty much the only thing they can be. Design is totally different from Kooks, AR, LG, Dynatech. Only other ss header is Stainless Works.

TPIS, FLP, SS Autochrome, etc. are all mild steel.

These are the ones that were on ebay. I was trying to figure out what they were before bidding but someone bought it for over $500!
