You may want to consider this: a ceramic coated exhaust. I just had a
conversation today
regarding this. There is a company that will coat your exhaust, and give you a

guarantee. I understand the cost is $350.00 for the coating. I have sen a system
done. It
looks great. If you want any further info, I'll be happy to furnish it.
