unless your planning on getting a big oven dont think you could do sway bars.

I never said id do it for him lol

I just said im going to get a powdercoating gun.

I have a setup, but if it wont fit in your oven, then I cant do it...

[HiImBrian]

Yea I've looked into getting all the equipment to start up myself with a buddy and we will more than likely be doin it as well this summer. The largest ovens I found fs were 30 inches and this sway bar is 42. I was sorta hopin somebody might work for a place that could get me a deal or somethin.

What he said, Dan at Elite is the man. He did the wheels and some other stuff on my R1. Has an oven big enough for a few people ;). PM me if you want his number.

I can get it powder coated CASE style red or CASE style Black. And I have access an oven that will fit your entire car. I suppose I should have just taken care of it before I gave it to you huh?

Yea I think I remember you sayin somethin like that when we were talking, but it didn't even cross my mind to ask you. How much are we talkin if I wanted to get that bar done red and my hitch done black? I'm assuming you'd be able to sandblast em first? I'm in no hurry to get em done, so just shoot me a date or maybe I'll swing by this weekend and drop em off if that's cool?

[Colin]

yeah, i should be able to just through it in with a big batch of small parts. and of course they will be media blasted before hand.

[HiImBrian]

^Awesome, I'll hit you up this weekend.

Yup, he does rims. He did my bike wheels, and I know he also did the stock wheels on Shane from Tintmasters Armada.

powdercoating does not hold up as well as a liquid paint under high speed impact, meaning that every time a rock hits your car on the interstate, you run the risk of sort of "shattering" the paint around the impact point. Thats why it is better on farm equipment, they don't move fast, and powder holds up better in adverse conditions.

but yes, you strip it down and I could get you car powdercoated.

^Yo colin I've got my hitch off my car. It's all yours if you want it, otherwise my buddy scott said he'd take it. lmk when you're free, I wanna see these projects you're workin on.

I don't need the hitch, thanks though, I got busy this weekend, but I'll shoot you a text later in the week.
