Bling! New ceramic coating on exhaust manifold

I got my exhaust header ceramic coated using Swain Techs White Lightning coating. Its a thick white ceramic coating that is supposed to do a better job at heat reduction than other coatings. It cost $150--I try not to spend money foolishly on my Bugeye rebuild, but I think that door has already closed.

looks great!
 
Bling indeed! Wow.
And are we going to go all stainless steel beyond this?
 
Yes, just got a new stainless exhaust. Am ready to put it all together.
 
I had the manifold sitting around and I was overcome by the bling of ceramic coating. I also wanted to use the stainless exhaust offered by Moss and I think it just fits the stock header (although I may be wrong about that).
 
Dang that's cool.
Very nice touch.
Love the color.
 
I had my race header coated by Swain, it's a very nice looking, durable coating process. For the race header bits plus the tube which connects to the through-tunnel exhaust it was about $200 - but anything which helps concentrate the heat where it's supposed to be is worth it, at least on a racer -
