I just bought a pair of hookers from Jet Hot about 2 months ago.
The offer a 20% discount to Team mmembers if I recall correctly.

Jet Hot does excellent work but their prices used to be way too high.
However,competition has brought their prices down and they sell some brands
of headers already coated now at decent prices.

Hi,
I'm done with coatings for a while but i'll try to answer as good as I can
anyway.
I guess there are companies doing that but I dont know of any.
One must also consider that everything here in europe is expensive and that
reflects
into pricing of all products even if they are produced right around the
corner, if I
were to buy eg Koni shocks they would be cheaper to buy in usa even if they
are
produced in holland.
And then there are problems to find a place willing to do only one set.
Many companies here in europe are still working with middlemen and agents
all
willing to earn their part.
then if I found a company in another country, there might be language
problems, high
shipping and from some countries even taxes.
It sounds like I want to make this more difficult than it is, but my friends
who
wants coated headers send them to jet hot or any other company in america.
ciao
