Default Header Coating?

Can anyone recommend, or at least know of a shop in Chicagoland that will do header coating?

I have a set of 1 7/8 American Racing Headers that will be sitting until I get the rest of my mods done, figure I might as well have them coated while they're just sitting there.

Thanks,

I got bored and polished one side this past winter. Then I realized it was stainless steel. They are already back to looking like chit!

Jet-Hot (www.jet-hot.com) is not local, but we used them for our headers and couldn't be happier with not only the appearence (we went with black) but the heat reduction under the hood as well.

One note of caution, you don't feel the heat until you actually touch the headers. Ask my neighbor how he knows!
