I have Jet-Hot ceramic coating on my headers. I would venture to guess that a lot of guys on here, that have ceramic coatings, have them Jet-Hot coated. You can get some info on their site http://www.jet-hot.com/. They did a nice job on mine. Hope this helps.

What you do is call or email em up, tell them what youve got and thell give you a definate price, or you can get the info packe in the mail that gives you a base price. You then ship them your goodies and when at Jet-hot they coat them INSANELY well, you pay for shipping i think 1 way. Then you pay for the coating and they send em back. They look sweet and there garunteed for life.
