That's pretty cool however I don't know of any places that Power coat that color. I am guessing you can see your DP on your car because I certainly can't?

pardon my stupid, but are you looking for materials so you can do the coating,
or some place to send it to get coated? because GrimmSpeed will coat downpipes blue . . . because I have no posts, I can't link you to the page on their site. |

I'm going to sound like a broken record, but Swain Tech White Lightning is superior to ceramic coating. It is more resistant to the hard heating/cooling cycles that are experienced on a street car. In addition the coating is rough, so paint ad hears to it very well.

In my opinion, yes. I have seen traditional ceramic coatings flake off after a while. The Swain coating is applied thicker and it has been proven to last longer and keep more of the heat inside the component.

i've used swaintech's coating on exhaust headers before, they're not the cheapest route, but it drops the engine bay temp 30 degrees or more. quick service and excellent customer service from them as well. I've also their turbo coatings are great, but I haven't tried them for myself.
