DipYourCar has done it on several vehicles no problem.

And that is on Audi Sports cars with shorter/very hot exhausts.

It should be OK. Before I had mine powder coated I did a little mini study under different driving conditions to see if I needed the more expensive ceramic coating and the hottest reading I got on them was only 40F higher than ambient and that was with ambient at 90F.

Yep. YouTube boosted motorsports. John does a ton of helpful vids and he even did a follow up a long time later on the tips and they looked like the day he did them.

Under $100 by a dime with the shipping.
Touched up a small dent on top of tailgate and installed the Geno's tailgate protector.
Shouldn't catch so much rain water when parked in the driveway also.

I love the look of it lit up but with my truck I like the chrome ram. Do they make a chrome look version?

They do!
If you go to my description I have a link in there that'll take you to the black one and I think you can choose Chrome.

The phone cable hanging out of the side of the console from the USB port kind of annoys me. Has anyone drilled a series of holes through the console in a manner where the wire comes out below the cell phone cradle, all nice and neat?
