recoat DC-Sports ceramic headers?
I just got my DC-Sports ceramic headers today and they have a few sratches and scuffs on them and overall the ceramic finish on them looks less than stellar in some areas.


Its my understanding that this ceramic coating is more for protection against metal corrosion than for heat properties, so is it worth getting it recoated with a higher grade finish to maximize heat properties (Jethot or Swain) or should I just leave it be?
Some bonus shots in case anyone was interested what the primaries entry area and merge collector looked like, seems ok to me (seen better seen worse).


Excuse the dog toy.

MORE SPECS ON DOG TOY PLZ!!
j/k lol. . .I don't think re-coating it would make that much of a difference, or even be worth it. If you're REALLY worried about the heat, I'd just get a heatshield. . .(did those come with any?)
