Yeow… Bright. Way too bright for me. Powder coat looks good though, color is just not for me. Certainly will help your probability of getting a “sighting” though hehe

> yea im very pleased with the results of their work. if my buddy’s oven didnt catch on fire when he was doing a test piece, he would have powdercoated them. so if you still think that they werent prepped right or w.e he does powdercoating so he knows what he is doing. so thats why i dont think that the price of $350 was right (as did my buddy), BUT i am happy that he was able to talk it down to $270 which WAS reasonable for me. i am just trying to clear things up a bit more:)  
> i dont hate anybody because they posted their opinion of my choice, yea i understand this is the internetz so anything goes, so i will deal with it. no hard feelings:hug(nohomo)

I hear what youre saying, but regardless how good your friend is at doing the prep work, PT isnt going to put their name on the line, or have the possibility of it coming back with issues over someones word. We had the same type of situation happen at the body shops alot, people that “prepped it” and just wanted it sprayed, come to find out that they we no where ready for paint. Its just extra insurance to do it your way, and make 100% sure that it is correct.

Powdercoat came out good, not a fan though, way too bright IMO.  
Car needs to be accented with more red somehow if its gonna work.

That’s not even expensive.

Which brings us to our next shift518 top tip: Just because your friend Johnny thinks your “rimz” are prepped, doesn’t mean they are anywhere NEAR the q.c. standards that powdertech requires to maintain their reputation, warranty, etc.
