Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build

Today was an exciting day. I was able to pick up my exhaust from ceramic coating. Also painter got doors and fenders color sanded and polished. The exhaust coating came out nicer than expected. What do you guys think ?

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build

That exhaust and the paint work both look amazing !!! How much did it set you back to get your exhaust ceramic coated ?

Re: 71 C10 6.0 LS ground up build

To get the exhaust ceramic coated was $650 dollars. To have it polished was going to be about $350-400 so not alot more. I like the idea of heat reduction and no maintenance.
