im in NY but my ceramic coating was done by http://65.103.220.211/ and it was $120 total. it was an aftermarket 4-1 header no0t the stock manifold.

There are a couple of places here in Alb. One of them is NM Allcoat, and I forgot the other places, but they are in the yellow pages under COATING. There are only about three for four places that do ceramic though..... most just do powder coating, which has no heat resistance characteristics. Hope this helps.

ok i know this is a pretty old post

but does anyone know of a good place to do this ANYWHERE?

i called a few places here in New Mexico

so far i found that Frizbees will do it for (you believe this!!!!) $275:dead: for any color i want and thats for just the header not the midpipe

also: hey beppo hows yours holding up? is it a good company?

great people, great service, great quality. its holding up perfectly as far as i can tell. this shop does all types of coatings- heat dissipating coatings for piston sidewalls, powdercoating, etc. i plan on doing my rims powderoated black over the winter while i have the stock ones on with snow tires. i would call them or i can do it for you and im sure that you could ship them to him and have them sent back. will ground shipping and everything i would guess they would be back to you in about 2 weeks, it takes about 3 days for the coating process. first they bake it to about 2500-2700 degrees, cooking off everything to bare metal, then takes about 12 hours to slow-cool so it doesnt crack or anything. then they polish it all up all shiny then do the coating, and bake it again same as before and this adheres the coating to the metal. it is then polished with a very fine steel wool and looks great. but u can look at the pics on the site to see it for yourself, its definitely worth it IMHO.

well if you can give them a call for me that would be appriciated

i have the OBX 4-2-1

ugh 2 weeks but i guess it would be worth it my hood is starting to discolor...:dead:

maybe i can send it during the winter since there wont be school or work and i can bum rides

i can send all kinds of parts and do it all at the same time!!

get my intake manifold and throttle body coated....hehe

well it kind of depends on what you want to spend. you could pay for overnight shipping both ways and have them back in liek 5 days. ill call him again on break, which is right now
