I was going to recommend Crucial Racing, because I have a Cobb heat shield coated by them, but apparently they are closed. Any idea what happened to them?
EDIT: It looks like Jeremy is working at Tesla now

I think Crucial Racing didn't do their own coatings. They contracted it out to a shop in the Bay Area. I've used Replika Maschinen in Santa Clara, but they took forever and weren't cheap. They media blasted everything and coated inside and out. Good news is their coating on my downpipe held up fine for 5 years to the point when I sold it. Not sure if they're still in business, however.

I've been searching around for this lately too and making some calls.
I'm probably going to take my header to West Coast Specialty Coatings in Concord.
They were helpful and gave me a reasonable quote. Still gonna be a few weeks before I drop my header off with them.
