I'm no whiz when it comes to painting, especially powder coating. But IIRC, it has to be a metal object, correct? I would like to get my engine cover painted, but it's plastic... So is this something that can be powdercoated? If not the plastic, what about the top half of a plenum? It's aluminum...

Yea it has to metal, there is research on having a low temp powder to do plastic but not available yet.For the plenum if it fits your standard kitchen oven than I can coat it.

Depends on the motor. If its for a SOHC or s13 DOHC than for an extra $15 I can purchase one for you. But if its like SR, RB, S14 DOHC than you'll have to send it in. I can do a blue wrinkle. Are you looking for a dark blue, light blue?

$30 but the TB has to be disassembled. If I remember correctly the TB has a plastic bearing that will melt when baking.

Closest I can get to that color is this.

As for price its $45 Shipped plus $10 to order the wrinkle blue. So $55 Shipped.

My friend asked me to make something on the wild side. I had a hard time coming up with a scheme. So I figured trying a 2tone. I must say this cover was the MOST pain in the ***, I've never been so frustrated on a cover like this one. Overall Im happy with the concept its not perfect but overall Im pleased. The masking on this was ridiculous I think im gonna use painters tape next time instead of this crappy powder coaters tape.






This is a cover I did for a friend as well. I was having such a bad day with applying multiple coats so I had to shoot the pink when the cover was hot. This poses a problem of the powder hardening before I can wipe off the letters.

You should see it in person, the sparkle is ridiculous. I did like 2 coats of the clear coat with sparkles. Its ridiculous my friend is extremly happy.However I dont think I'd want to do it again. I've never been so agitated coating a cover like I was with this cover.

Well I like how that thermostat housing turned out as well. Can you do the intake manifolds for the ka24de? I have mine off right now and it looks like total arss... Also can you do the throttle body on the dohc? or will it melt that piece you were talking about...? Could you also hook me up with that same kind of powder coating on my valve cover? I just want the intake mani a grey color or silver with like a glossy finish to it not the wrinkle effect...

I can do the Intake manifolds, they break into 2 pieces so it will make it easier.As for the Throttle body. If you can disassemble it than I can coat it. If I remember correctly the TB has a plastic bearing that will melt. If the TB was 100% metal than there would be no problem. So you wanna do a Black chrome which is the color of that thermostat housing. I can do that for you. If you can disassemble the TB than $170 Shipped. If you cant $140 Shipped.

I have a couple motorcycle parts that I would love to send you! (I am repo's little brother) I saw the single cam valve cover and thats how I feel about it. SO... here is a pic of what I would send you. It is a trim ring and a cast metal piece. Both are currently chrome (there's chrome under the black paint, but the black paint was removed). There are little red arrows in the pic but they are somewhat hard to see. I would request flat black for the projector surround and black chrome for the trim ring. And depending on price, I would send the handlebar your way for some black crinkle. I'd love to know how much and how fast! Thanks.

I'll have to ask the pros on the powder coating forum on how to do the chrome parts. In order to get a good coat it has to be bare metal however chrome can be powdercoated no problem just want to make sure its not a problem down the road. With Handle bars $70 Shipped, without $40 Shipped. I just got some flat black in a few days ago :p
Turn around time is usually a week plus shipping time.

Awesome. Let me know if I should have these things sand blasted to get rid of the chrome. It is not that big of a deal for me to go get em stripped.
