Painting is the most common method of stopping the pipes from corrosion. I have used engine enamel, due to the fact that its pretty tough paint & wont scratch easy, but its not essential. any paint will do really, as the pipes are not subjected to huge amounts of heat unless they come particularly close to the exhaust manifold. Give the pipes a good once over with some fine grade sandpaper, then wash them & wipe with acetone or thinners before painting. You'll get a pretty neat finish this way.
Ceramic coating is obviously more durable again, and has pretty favourable heat resistant properties, but at a cost. 
Cheers
Phil
