Where did you get this done? How long did they have your manifold for?

Edit: Don't worry I took some initiative and looked for myself :D

Just had a look on their website, I've been considering ceramic coating my extractors and intake manifold, though to be honest I think the jury is still out on the benefits of this...

But I had to laugh at this;
Non stick wheel coating NOT JUST FOR FRYING PANS!
Rubber and debris on a race car has a tendency to build up on the insides of your wheels putting them out of balance. WE HAVE THE SOLUTION!
Imagine just wiping your wheels down and not having to scrape the rubber off.
This PTFE technology (also known as Teflon) is the same as what you see in the kitchen on frying pans and is a hard wearing durable, attractive satin black finish THAT NOTHING WILL STICK TO
Now available for your race wheels for as little as $150 per wheel.

What an absolute load of BS! :lol: If anyone pays $150 a wheel for this they seriously need shooting :lol:

Yeah, I've had them do stuff for me, but these guys did my last batch:

Competition Coatings
10 Ferndell St Guildford NSW 2161
ph: (02) 9892 2218 Motor Sport Services

They also did my gearbox :)

Turn around time was about a week from memory?
