You should have got them with the ceramic coating, otherwise, you're fukked. Send them to Polydyn in Houston, they coated mine.

Ceramic does look alot like chrome. Here's an example of ceramic coated headers. Check the product number to make sure. http://www.brenspeed.com/16410.html

If they look chrome then you don't need to worry about anything, that's the ceramic coating. It'll dull up a bit after a few heat cycles
