Kooks ceramic coated

These are for sale on the camaro facebook group. Can you tell from the picture if these are coated? These seem more like pictures of non-coated ones going by pics on the forum. Hesitant to do a non-local buy but with paypal there is some protection.

Not coated at all. My coated stainless steel headers are still black(ish) after about 2 years/30k miles of use

Coated or not .. the question is are you getting a good deal? Coating them yourself is an option! I have coated long tubes and still found them to allow to much heat in the engine bay. I ended up wrapping my headers with header wrap and sprayed the wrap with DEI spray. I also sprayed a coating over the existing coating inside the tubes and sprayed the flanges. Temp read 400-600 degrees before the wrap and spray. Now temps read 250-350.

If you are getting a good deal I’d say buy them coated or not.
