what's the best place for having something thermal coated silver? thanks

WHo could I trust to sand and thermal coat the bipipe? I know of a few websites but what companies have you guys used? I'll start driving my '87 saab when it snows so I'll have a chance to do a few off season mods to the S4

I'll do the bipipe and (if it looks good) maybe have the inlet pipes done. I think it would look great and may help with the heat next summer.

I'll replace the ECS/HT engine mounts at the same time. I'm not sure if I'll risk the stasis racing mounts or stick with new "real/non-HT" RS4 mounts.

thanks
