Today I got RPi GT muffler ceramic coated.
Yesterday I received RPi GT muffler from Trinity. As I'm in process of my "getting rid off chrome & aluminum" project, I decided to get this muffler in matte black as well. I called several places that do powder coating, none of them recommended doing it. Instead they said the best way to go would be ceramic coating (as it is more heat resistant).
I found one guy in Amity, Oregon that does excellent job. Very easy to deal with, great attitude.
The best part he charges $50 for job like that. His website: STP powdercoating custom powder coating home page

So this won't crack or fracture with everyday expansion and contraction?
