Default Bonehead Performance - Header Ceramic Coating - Reviews?

Has anyone had their headers coated at this place?: https://boneheadperformance.com/cera...oating-colors/

Jet-Hot quoted me $300 plus shipping. Bonehead quoted me $250 plus shipping on coating my long tube headers.

My rule has become, go with the guys you know, or know of. It seems like every time I try to save a little, I spend a lot.

I tend to agree w. above suggestion on who to go with, but if you want a relatively "local" and knowledgeable person, call Jim Stuempfle (pronounced, "stem" "flee") at County Corvettes and ask him about the company in question. Jim's been in the new and old Corvette restoration biz for a very long time. And if he doesn't know them, one of his guys might. https://www.countycorvette.com/meet-county-corvette/

I did look at Bonehead's site and that's how I knew/found out there in the Philly general area (I used to live there) with the 215 area code. I can say this much: they or their web designer doesn't know how to make the front page marketable. You put all the important info on page one. Like location, not just phone number.
