Try here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=852379
I doubt it would work the same due to the fact its not a stainless steel header.

You could always just wrap it with some header wrap or powdercoat it if you want.

I'd send it out for coating. Even if you spend the time and effort to improve its appearance, it will eventually return to its current condition or worse. A quality coating will not only protect the header, but will maintain a nice finish as well.

i have always just painted my headers black. a lot of steel wool and some alcohol and a couple cans of matte black 1700 degree paint. works like a charm for me.
