I think Draglc just got his done in ceramic (unsure by who) for $250 inc postage, very very reasonable IMO.

Cheers.

I had L8 extractors done by HPC but I think Jet Hot use the same process. Very happy with the results but don't know the cost.

I would highly recommend JET HOT if you like to be stuffed around..there ability to F��K people over,lose parts,charge for things they don't do and when they do charge..well organise a personal loan..there work is very very ordinary..free advice is to steer clear of these morons..

Had mine redone for the 3rd time in 10 years (keep changing the design) by High Octane Coatings in Sydney. Best job ever, they polish the pipes like chrome and $350 for a set of large 4 into 1's.

Just out of curiosity, do you have to/do they strip the pipes back to bare metal before applying another coat?

Or is it possible to apply coats ontop of coats?

I used them as well (500m from my office) and they did a great job. Fast, friendly and easy to deal with.

Yes, they sand blast first, which gets rid of sanding marks, then acid dip before coating.

myss427 you say you have changed the design a few times, what is the longest you have had one set on the car with the coating, and how did they look at the end of it, and how much hard work were the pipes doing?
