Can anyone help me with a powdercoating shop somewhere in NYC, Westerchester county or Northern NJ. I've called places left and right. They either wont do what I've got or want over $1000 in total. I want to powdercoat my wheels and valve cover. Anyone?

 

:ibkumar/starboy:

 

Greg (Dragon) should know. He had his wheels pcoated
Dont know if Kumar's in the game

 

kumar is who i'd ask too, maybe ghost too

 

1000? thats rediculous, i got all 4 of my wheels done for 200, and got quoted 25 for my valve cover.

 

is powedercoating reliable? like it wont chip off or anything in a year or two right? if not powdercoating FTW

 

thats why powdercoating is so reliable, its cooked on, and it never comin off

 

$50 bucks a wheel ill do two sets for that fact. I have to keep looking

 

shouldn't be that expensive either

 

how dare u doubt me!!!!!

ill try em all. Monday. Any suggestions on anything cool for the valve cover?
two tone

 

1. Paint it but then grind the paint off the letters. Like this.

2. Paint the letters a different color than the rest of the valve cover. I would go with red and black, but im not sure what color you car is or what colors you want to do.

 

done that. pain came off a few months later
yes i did use high temp paint.
i had no luck today. one guy wanted buck-fity a wheel and buck-quater for the valve cover
tomorrow i shall try again
still open to new suggestions and new businesses to call
