so my ebay header is definitely fading the paint on my hood. I planned on getting it repainted anyhow because there's a lot of chips. I was wondering if I should install some insulation under the hood(it has none) or send my header off to jet-hot for a ceramic coating. Which would be more effective? Any other suggestions always appreciated

Personally i wouldnt do the wrap either because we dont know the breaking point of these headers since they are from ebay, but u can buy the heatshielding that snaps into your hood. Its got a metal backing on paper so it keeps the heat lower on your hood, ive noticed some dulling paint on the inside of my hood due to no heatshielding, but since im running the stock exhaust manifold with heat shielding its not damaging the outer paint cause its not getting hot enough.
