Porcelain headers and cans

So.....I found a place in Belmont (SF bay area in Cali) that does headers and cans called Accessories Plus.
http://www.cobracountry.com/ap/home.html

Anyone heard of him? He said the headers and pipes in black with clear coat are $25/Ft. the larger cans are $35/Ft. Sounds like I could get out of there for $200-$300 I think I am gonna go for it.

Also, should I do the entire can? or should I leave the chrome tapered reducer at the end?

Once I am done Ill post some pics.

If its like Jet-Hot then its a good thing to do. I did it to my bike (jet hot) and I like it. They coat the inside as well as outside and it frees up the airflow. Plus with the coating there is a reduction in heat that comes off the pipes by your feet/legs (plus) and I am actually able to touch the pipes soon after the shutting the bike off(not recommended, but i had to try) The shop that told it too me had it done to his turbo busa and his honda blackbird.

but check out

If i remember i paid just at $300 with shipping door to door. Headers up to the jardine high mounts.

Yes it is just like jet hot (he even offered the exact same colors too)

Hey BigPat I don't suppose you could post some pics of your bike for me....

Also, did you coat the pipe clamps too?

I was thinking of sending my pipes to Jet Hot, but now that I know there's a place here in Penninsula, I'll take it there. Thanks for info, you saved me a ton on shipping charges.

You're welcome, you will be amazed when you go there, there are headers from floor to ceiling, front to back - and apparently this guy has a great reputation too. (my buddy had his El Camino headers done here and they looked sweet)
