I tried the search feature--hiding from me if it's there.
My exhaust header on my 53 3100 Bolt is starting to show some rust underneath the new paint from two years ago :-( Probably used the wrong stuff. So, instead of blasting them and repainting, I thought of getting them chromed or ceramicized. Does anyone have any experience with this--and what source to purchase? Also, would it be better to just get new ones? Sources would be great!

I've seen the cereamic and chromex coated headers and they look great. A little spendy though. Another solution is to get some manifold dressing from Eastwood. A little dab with a toothbrush once a year keeps the manifold looking like fresh cast iron. You can put it on over surface rust with no problem.
