exhaust manifold shield ceramic/powdercoat?

i am planning on getting an aftermarket manifold shield and want to know if the temps are too much for the powdercoat or i should just get it ceramic coated? Powdercoat has more options and would look sick powdercoated but a ceramic coating would be more practical and would still look nice. ive seen them powdercoated and look good. so any experience is welcome.

I would recommend getting it ceramic coated. It will look good, but be more functional. The powdercoating more than likely will not hold up long term.

thats what i was thinking. ceramic is good up to 2000 degrees and powder coat is good up to 500 degrees. i mean if i got it powdercoat is good to 500 degrees and i would line the inside of the shield with a heat blanket so the outside of it would probably not experience too much heat but im not sure. If it did deteriorate it would be around the edges. ive seen both so just asking to see if anyone had any issues
