My headers were done by HPC www.hpcoatings.com Total cost was about
$255 including shipping, and striping the old chrome off them. They
did an EXCELLENT job on them. And just as I showed Brett and other
members they do cut WAY down on radiated heat. They have sort of a
satin finish to them (sounds better than saying dull). But they stay
clean and don't stain and discolor like chrome does. Some of the best
money I've spent.....
