From experience, have the pipes grit or sand blasted, then heat proof powder coating.
For me, it's only been mufflers not header pipes with powder coating.
In any case, if you're doing header pipes, the chrome will need to be roughened to allow any paint to adhere to the surface. I've had success with VHT exhaust paint in the past.
Not real durable, but cheap enough to recoat when it begins to look a little shabby/worn.

Send them off to JetHot. Mine are painted right now and it's a bitch to keep black.
