Chrome headers, stock can?

[pechorin75_imp]

What about getting the stock header ceramic coated? A lot of the group of older bike owners I know ceramic cost their headers to give them the chrome look without the chrome costs...

Quote:Why is ceramic coating better than chrome for headers?

Ceramic coating originated in the aerospace industry, where it was used to coat the exhaust nozzles of jet engines. The coating was found to not only protect the nozzles from corrosion, but also helped reduce operating temperatures and increase the nozzles' life span. Adapting this coating technique to automotive headers provides the same results--high corrosion resistance, reduced underhood temperatures, and longer life. Chrome plated finishes look good initially, but will tarnish and turn colors during normal operation. Also, chrome will rust if not cleaned regularly.

That's a good idea....I wasn't aware you could do that, and the examples I've seen don't look too bad. Might have to investigate further. Thanks!
