I vote for chrome for a black bike. Maybe black would work on a white bike.
I think you need the high contrast between pipes and the body color.
But, its a subjective matter. As long as it pleases your eye, thats what
counts

Hi Pete,

Looks like there is lots of comapnies that deal with this type coating.
Type
"cermakrome" into the subject heading of Yahoo and you will know lots :-)
Lots of header and muffler work done too. Also...looks like they work with
rusty parts too. Could breath life back into the old rusty headers I have
here.....I'm glad I didn't chuck them.

I was thinking that I might get them finished in black. What is the
general
thoughts on that? Do you think that it would look good or should I stay
with
the chrome? Just thinking of options.....what about Pewter...eh Andy? :-)

Regards....Ian

That's interesting. My first reaction to ceramics is a concern about
brittleness. Question them closely about the coatings' resistance to
stress cracking.
Its encouraging that a car exhaust was referred to though.

Keep us posted
Pete
