Any experience with Performance Coatings in Auburn WA?

The time has come for me to get my exhaust manifold and turbo heat shields ceramic coated!

I was originally thinking Jet Hot because of the recommendation on the Cygnus X-1 site. But mixed reviews left me on the fence about using them.

I then learned of the amazing work of jdub. I read pages and pages of threads and everyone was utterly pleased with his work. But sadly I confirmed that jdub is no longer doing coatings :(

Through some searches I found a local place called Performance Coatings that does ceramic coating. I looked for reviews and whilst most were from motorcycle websites they were generally very positive. (It is almost like jdub is secretly working for them...)

So I was just wondering if anyone has done any business with them?
(I know they sponsored a WA Supra meet in 2012, but that was all I could find here.)

Many thanks!

They coated my cooleeze downpipe 8 years ago. Still holding well. They coat inside and out...polishing the inside with vibrating machines. I recommend them.

Finally going to drop off my parts at Performance Coatings this week! So excited as this means I am close to getting the car back together.

Dropping off the following:
Turbo Exhaust Housing
Large clamp that holds center section to turbo exhaust housing
Turbo Elbow
Exhaust Manifold
Turbo and Exhaust Manifold heat shields

If there is anything else I should consider ceramic coating let me know!

I picked up the parts today and so far I am very happy with the look. Cannot wait to get them on my car! Will write a real review once I have things on and heat cycled a few times.

These were the parts before the coating:
