Since i'm getting the Helix flex uppipe, can that be ceramic-coated (the flex part)?

If

you drive your car hard, the wrap will turn hard and flaky and peel off. I smoked my wrap on the stock turbo. Didn't know until I pulled the header. I had it ceramic coated and never looked back. Hi-Tech, past the track on the right. Cost me about the same as the wrap without the itch (fiberglass in your skin) and pain to wrap.

What brand uppipe do you have? Cuz I don't see how they can ceramic coat a flex pipe (Helix). Its not like PDE-type flex, it's more like braided stainless flex, so idk. I wanna ceramic coat it though.

you cannot coat the flex area. they may be able to coat the flat sections.
