tti's turned gray?

put a set of tti's on my 340 last summer and done ok, last fall made 1 nos pass and after that the polished,ceramic coated, thermal barrier, Mucho $ headers turned to a gray haze about an inch or two past the flange anyone else had this trouble?
Same thing happened to my Polished TTI's after break-in and 200 miles. I guess it's normal.

No rust yet.

I can't recommend the Polished option to anybody.
