That's what I tell my friends. I judge people by what they do, more than what they say.

Justin,
Thanks for the additional exhaust photos. Really makes it easy to see how the finishes turned out with some use. I thought the paint might bond chemically with the ceramic and just make a weird looking mess.
It turns out your method works just the way I would have hoped: The paint burned off in some areas, but the iron (well, ceramic) that shows through looks like fresh metal with no rust, to boot. I think you nailed it.
RE DC.com, I have to confess I don't know what it is. I happen to work in DC, and the link leads to Deloitte Consulting, which is related to my own profession, but I must be way off. Maybe a Dodge Charger ("DC") forum? Direct Connection?

No worries there is a Jim over there but your not the same guy...dodgechargerforumindex.com...just asking..funny how the DC letters related in some way, lol....
Thanks! The coatings are limited to what the manufacturer offers. I wish they could make one that mimics the exact cast look...I even asked but we are not mixing regular paint which is the issue. The next thing is to see how it looks 2 years from now and that is the true test.
The guys I used and listed in this thread are great to deal with....They fully inspect your manifolds for cracks and squareness....One of mine had a tiny hairline crack in an area non noticeable and the welded it up. They assured me you wont be able to tell and I have no clue where it was repaired.....The other companies out there are about double the price btw...

You will not be disappointed with the work and the price.....Realistic prices
Color was Satin Grey but now they have a satin tungsten grey. If at the time they had that I would have gone with that color but they did not....However, I would request a real picture of that first....

I can only speak for myself, my information/research wheelhouse related to Mopar B-Bodies no longer comes from dodgecharger.com.
