I’m thinking about doing this too. Though I may go ceramic.

I went with ceramic due to reports of better wear....

Your photo and the thread you posted have convinced me to do the same! I also have PSE.

Can I ask, how have the powder-coated exhaust tips held up over time?

About 100K miles on mine and they are fine... mine are ceramic coated... there may be some discoloring... or maybe embedded carbon... not sure... but honestly, I don't spend much effort cleaning them other than running a sponge on them. Overall, they look great and I am very happy I did it.

Peace

Are there any gloss-finish options for ceramic? All I've seen in ceramic coatings are flat/satin finishes.

Very nice!!

I had mine ceramic coated by Jet-Hot (no affiliation) about 7 years ago with H02 Black Solid Ceramic.
They still look great: https://www.jet-hot.com
