i had mine powder coated in some chrome color.....comes out lookin kinda polished but still nice

its nicer cuz u dont have to keep polishing it to keep it up ya heard

« **Reply #2 on:** February 06, 2009, 10:26:24 AM »

was yours polished before you had it coated? Jeff from Embee told me that if it wasn't polished before he coats it, it will not be smooth, the finish will mock the texture of the manifold

Magic metal here in Bakersfield did mine and they came out great. I believe that they were pretty reasonable. They are on Ming Ave across from the fair grounds in a Yellow building

Actually it does douchebag. Beadblasted metal is not as smooth as polished metal, any f ucktard with a 3rd grade education knows that. Go back to whatever hole you crawled out of and eat a dick, thank you.

WELL JUST SO U KNOW MY BUDDYS UNCLE OWNS A POWDERCOATING SHOP AND THEY SAND BLASTED MINE B 4 THEY POWDERCOATED IT AND IT STILL CAME OUT SMOOTH...IT DEPENDS ON THE AMOUNT OF POWDER THEY PIT ON IT...THE TEMPETURE THEY BAKE IT AND AND HOW LONG THEY BAKE IT FOR....

Thanks. You know what they say, "If it don't run, chrome it!"

It took about a week.

The shop I know is in Santa Fe Springs and was quoted about I can get it done cheaper for you but the shop is in Santa Fe springs so shipping back and forth is going to eat up any savings.

I can ship it for about $8 each way, got a number?
