That's pretty. What kind of coating?

I meant to send mine off to SwainTech, but got impatient and just put them on. Now I'm wishing I had waited, but dreading taking them off again.

Very nice.
Likewise on the coating, put them on without it but i cant imagine taking them off again unless i had a good reason to do so.

Niiiice. I wish I had coated mine. It gets so hot under there. Now I am thinking I need the dads CF hood or the suncoast pre-FL black series style hood to vent some of the heat.

Doing it in 2 parts - taking them off, shipping out for coating, then reinstalling - might make it more tolerable. I'm thinking about it...

Is this because you're laying on your back with the car up on jack stands? Or is it just that tight in there you bash your hands to sh¡t?

Ahhh that looks great man. Gosh your car is awesome.

I somehow doubt that the ceramic coating on my headers will do anywhere near as good a job as yours!

Looks great.

Try driving a turbo car with an open wastegate with no carpet, padding.
