Travis ,
Calico Coatings in Denver. They are just off Hwy 16 just past the NAPA Store in Denver. I don't have the phone number but you can probably find them on Whitepages.com.

Or, try a Google for Calico Coatings.

Regards,

Jet Hot 2000 is what I used on my THDP. 5 years later it still looks like it did when I took it out of the box. It isn't a shiney finish but it holds up to the heat.

After seeing Race Jace's HPC'd downpipe, headers and exhaust housing, I went that route and its great.

If you are considering HPC, use the Southwest facility in Arizona, they have a much faster turn around.

I beg to differ, when I had my stuff done by them the turn around time went from 1 1/2 weeks to almost a month. The whole time I got jerked around about when my parts where going to be finished. Then, when I finally got to pick my parts up, I got yelled at by their shop manager when I politely tried to express my concerns about the time frame and the spotty finish on some of the parts. So I took my parts and called there main office about this, they just brushed me off. So I say find somebody else that treats their customers right and delivers on their promises.

I was extremely pleased with all aspects with them.
Turnaround time was less than 2 weeks.
I had headers, exhaust housing, and downpipe (among alot of other things) done in the cerma-chrome. I have maybe 1k miles, but about 30 hard 1/4 mile passes. They have definately dulled, BUT no flaking, and they still look 110% better than nothing at all---the coating is inside/out.....i would suggest this company.
