It's amazing how many people give thumbs up or yell out their window for me to rev it up everytime I drive it. Or the amount of trucks that want to race
Damned rednecks in their jacked up trucks lol

For daily driver I would go stainless. My car is driven a few times per month, never in the rain, they are ceramic with just a few spots of surface rust on the very bottom. I was able to wipe off with wd40 then cleaned that off with windex.

You could get them jet hot coated then heat wrapped for even better cooling. The 10+ year old BBK stainless shorties on my 90' GT look new, just some heat coloration showing.

One more thing the benefits listed on jet hots website are found with most ceramic coatings but Jet Hot is king.

Benefits are listed here, and these engines run hot after a good time running hard so anything to help cooling or removing heat is a win...

SW would not cover one dime on labor for the removal and reinstall.
The money I sent to replacement header was refunded, but I still ate another $400 in labor. And was without a car for two weeks while I waited for the header and could have it installed.
Someone has to test it lol! Sucks it was you though
