I assume before coating, the company will sandblast, so painting seems overkill--can't hurt though.

u can coat used headers.. they bead blast the crap outta them and will get rust corrossion and etc off the headers

if you dont mind the hassle of taking them off to get coated and puttin them back on, go for it later whenever u get the cash.


and mine was 140 bucks to coat from JET HOT. i still think they do this, but mention you heard about them from this site..thirdgen.org and that your a member. they give you a discount and it came out to be 140 bucks instead of like 170 or something
