    I've had that godawful wrap on my downpipe for a while and its the devil, a bodger solution. Looking to get my downpipe stripped and ceramic coated now to get the job done properly at last. Has anyone else had this done and can recommend somewhere to do this?

    Also, I assume its not worth doing the rest of the exhaust for a roadcar is it? Planning on doing just the downpipe to keep engine bay temps down a little more, not too fussed about heatloss from exhaust.

    Any help appreciated :)

    Yeah i looked into this for my turbo conversion. Have a word with Rob from AW Tracksport (aka Trendy Tramp on here) he should be able to sort you out. Had a price for my manifold, came out to about 70 sheets. That includes sandblasting and external coating. :)
