BadMab Shorty Header With Thermal Coating

I recently met with a local thermal coating shop to have them coat one of our shorty headers because I was thinking of offering this as an option. I think the results look great, but I wanted to get everyone’s opinion. The upgrade would be right at $100 if I can get at least 5 people to sign up at a time. Some of the benefits include:

• 50% lower temperature
• Polished finish
• Lasting results (the header wouldn’t “turn” like with a non-coated header)
• Absolutely NO corrosion
• 100% Lifetime Warranty

Here are a few pics and a video

They're typically $189+$100(coating)+free shipping= $289 shipped to your door!

I'll start a list in the OP. Anyone that would be interested just let me know and I'll put you on the list. Once I get to five I can get things rolling with the coating company.

That's the best price I can get from the coating place (it's typically $150+). This stuff is as good as you can get though.

I might be able to do something on the price of the actual header if I can get 5 people signed up though.

Awesome header, and awesome service from Brad!!

I wish the coating was available when I purchased my Badmab header. The coating should retain the heat inside the header better, and promote better exhaust gas velocity.

If i had the time to pull mine off, since it was one of the bad ones with the holes off in the collector i'd send it back. But i'm about to put my 2.7 on, and all that fun stuff so no way a stocker is going on

You had a good buy in July for $155 shipped. If we could get that with $100 for the coating. So it would be $255 shipped I'd be in for one.
