Latest mod-powder coating

While my baby was down for some head work, so I took off the side covers and cam cover and dropped them off to the powder coater. Just got back yesterday and installed today, best $65 spent, what ya think? Tomorrow oil goes in and she's ready to fire....I hope!

Looks great! I was talking about putting the red ones on mine as I think the black o7 thrux would look good with a little red... The prioce for the stock piece is crazy so maybe the winter off to the powder coaters with them.

ok my opinion here so take it with a grain of salt.

The quality of powdercoating looks stunning in the pictures. Definitely top shelf work there. The shiney black covers on the silver engine just doesnt do it for me. The engine needed to be painted black to take away some of the contrast.
