Default ceramic coating

does anyone know any shops in the east TX area or DFW area that can ceramic coat some LT's for me and if it would be worth it at all i may have found some pacesetter LT's non coated for cheap and would like to get them coated if the price aint to bad, business names and numbers would be a plus

yeah i actually think im gonna use the local guy to coat them now (70 bucks a header inside and out) but i am going to use Ray to fab my exhuast he is prolly one of the first guys i have talked to that said we can do true duals and for the price its actually what i want and a lot cheaper than buying a catback exhuast, have to take my headers up to him before i get them coated to get them ready shave the emissions off and put flanges on them then get them coated ill prolly get him to fab everything then come back take off the heades and get them coated

Thats cool, I would check back with him on the price once he gets ahold of Jet Hot and sees what the total cost would be.. When I talked to him he didn't know off hand but said that it should cost around 150 bucks or so, but he hasn't gotton ahold of them yet to find out at the time I talked to him which was around 12 Noon.

I went out to Ivan's one night but I don't think you were there. I am usually out on the loop in the weekends except for this weekend since it was cold and raining.

yeah i got quoted around 325 i think for the header prep and flange add-ons and then the shipping to jethot and coating, so i may go ahead and just let him do all of it cause its only gonna be another 40 bucks for the coating from jethot that and the turnaround time at the local place was 2.5 to 3 weeks
