    Thank you for the leads.
    Swain sounds and looks great, but on my Dino, they have to be black as from the factory. I think Jet Hot is possibly the next best option.

    Is your Dino a USA or European model? The headers are quite different and to make the USA ones to look original can be pretty expensive - and ceramic coating appears to be not applicable.

    Got the headers back from them, very reasonably priced, and absolutely stunning!

    Will post a photo when I get them back to Central America.

    Mine are the correct "L" version.

    Highly recommended.

    Thor, or is it Hanging? I agree, they could be expensive, but we can replicate or modify them very reasonably provided the ones we get are in good shape.

    Mine had craters all over, the pitting was really excessive and they would not have lasted long.

    And yes, they were ceramic coated.

    Regards, Alberto
