Dnyce · 05-29-2008, 11:59 PM

i just got done mounting my exhaust, and making a new brake pedal/arm to work with it. now i wana do the ceramic coat. who has done it recently?

check it out-i like what this company offers, their chromex coat
click

any1 dealt with them before? i sent them some pics of what i had two days ago, they havent gotten back to me with a quote yet. after another two days or so, screw it. i dont wana get dicked around on my parts taking forever. i know about jet hot, hp, and a few others, but dont know any1 whos done it recently. my pipe is 10pieces-4 flanges, 4 head pipes, collector, and megaphone, in case ne1 is wondering. i DO NOT wana chrome it, but would prefer the chrome like (gotta be ceramic, not powder) coating as opposed to the usual black or boring ass grey color. any suggestions?

dude... I dunno... I think the black would look fuck'n pimp with your frame and swing arm being black... then again... your front fender is chrome...

Don't do anything ceramic besides an exhaust. The stuff sucks, and comes off WAY WAY too easily.

i was thinkin the same thing, but the engine is varying shades of aluminum(needs to be polished lol) and chrome, the new paint job is kinda on the dark side, and the wheels are mostly black. seems like i need alil more shine to offset all the darkness. i may paint the headlite, fender and forks to match the bike too

thats what im talkin about-my exhaust is 6 pieces lol

you're the 1st to say ceramic sucks tho, whys that? what company did you use?

jet hot just told me 220 plus shipping for the sterling look on the inside and outside, basically looks like highly polished aluminum. still waiting for 3 other companies to reply

It sucks cause its so freakin thin!! You can wear it off with about anything... the thinness is what makes it awesome for temps... but it sucks for durability.

The friend of ours with the anti-bling Busa has everything black powdercoated, and then the exhaust black ceremic coated, and it looks fuckin' sweet. Very clean and stealthy.
