[Jim]

[Joel]

Is it possible to do an IC?

[PSiedTSi]

is there anyway to anodize my purple type s bov? i want it blue instead

[92TSIpos]

but purple is such a pretty color

[harwood39]

could you do valve covers or do those have to be powder coated?

[PSiedTSi]

if its aluminum it can be anodized

[harwood39]

nope, i dont think its aluminum. its my stock civic one, i wouldnt know.

[treimche]

Would it be ok to anodize wheels or not? I would just be worried about getting the tires mounted on them and the lug nuts messing up the coating. How durable is it compared to powdercoating?

[weshole]

you can anodize steel and aluminum so you can do just about any valve cover out there.

[PSI2HI]

Steel cant be done. Most all import vehicles have aluminum valve covers, so most all sahould be able to be done.

Anyone?

[PSI2HI]

Yeah you can anodize wheels no problem. Shouldn't have any problems mounting tires unless you got some retard doing them which in that cause it doesn't matter whats on them their gonna mess it up.

Only kicker on doing wheels is if you want them to look completly perfect w/ no grain of the alum behind them is they basically need to be polished before hand because anyt defect will show. But if you dont mind the grain of the aluminum then leave them as is.
