I want to get a few parts(calipers/valve covers) Powder coated. Has anyone done this? If so what was the cost and how long did it take them to return the parts?

This is my DD so i can't drive it without the parts i want coated...

 

Anyone?!?

 

I had 4 20" rims and a roll cage. Time is dependent on the shop and how fast they can get you in. Mine was done in a week. Cost me about $20 per rim. Haven't gotten the bill for the roll cage

 

Cool....for some reason i thought i would cost a lot more

 

I called a local shop.. and to get my extra set of Cam covers coated in a color similar to Vista Blue.. they wanted $250.. and that was with me dropping them off & picking them up!

Needless to say, they're still not powder coated..

 

Some of the folks have painted them and they look real sharp for the cost of a rattle can. Just saying.

 

I've heard that the rattle can jobs are good for about 6m to a year. I'm pretty sure I have to remove the blower to put the DS cam cover on and it's not something I want to do anymore then I have to.

 

Since yours is a DD, the best approach is to pick up used/take-off parts and have them coated. I found a semi-local guy that does PC'ing on the side and he quoted me like $50 for a set of cams covers.
