I use a place in Huntington Beach and have been very happy with the results.
I can look up the name when I get to the shop on Monday.

The only problem is, the coating will outlast the el-cheapo header...

FYI, other than ceramic coating, they also have a higher temp black coating. Just remember to let the coating bed in outside of the garage for a while - it SMELLS really bad.
The coating may cost as much or more than your header, haha. It's good stuff, though.
They also do some kick ass powder coating:
