Cerakote was $225.
Engine tin and shroud silver powdercoat was $325. It came out nice, but was told to be careful as the Creakote can scratch. Powder Craft North Hollywood.   |

Wouldnt ceramic coating be better then Cerakoat? I know they are similar, but I usually associate Cerakote with firearms, not engine parts.
I've had ceramic coated exhaust and headers before. Its amazing how much heat it pushed out the tail pipe rather then radiating it through the exhaust pipes. Its night and day now with the SS heat exchangers on the car, if I get under the car after driving it. Zach |

They have a lot of options and they will send out color square samples of their colors. |

It wasn't cheap, and honestly they don't LOOK great (they were a little banged up), but I'm expecting them to run slightly cooler and also not rust. A lot of cerakote providers are actually firearms shops. |

Powder Craft North Hollywood. My Powder Coating was done at Powder Craft as well including Ceramic Coating of the Muffler! Price was about $300, but its LA and it seems like everything is at a premium out here.  |
