Like this?



I had mine sent to Jet-Hot for their "sterling silver" coating.

how much did it cost? why not just send the stock manifold off for a coating (assuming you had the resources to bear the downtime)?

It was a little over $30 to have it coated, however, shipping & handling to and from AZ cost twice that. Good question about the stock manifold, the reason I didn't send it was because I didn't want to risk damaging the cat converter. I still may buy a header and have it coated as well, but in the meantime, this was an inexpensive and legal way to get some points at the car shows.
