Powder Coating Teaser/Interest Thread

Well I took it to the next step and powder coated my strut tower bar. I will be offering this service to the ACURAzine crew, but want to see some interest first before I go out and buy extra parts. I have pricing as follows:
With one stage colors:
-Strut tower bar is $50 plus stock
-Intake manifold is $40 plus stock (includes polishing the lettering)
-Wheels are gonna run $60 each

These prices are not including the shipping and there is no trade in charge. If you are going to be using my trade in option, I would need to hold a deposit that will be refunded in full once I receive your piece back. If you send an item to me, I would not need a deposit.

Colors:
Please go on http://powder365.com/ and check out the colors. If they are in stock the prices stay as above. If it is a custom color, please contact me for more pricing.

I'm sure you can get two in a box and two boxes at $30 each so $130 total.

what would be the approx turn around time for this service? Would it be for the entire IM or just the cover. I would love to have the entire thing powerd coated, I have tried to paint mine with the high temp paint but it didnt come out too good.

$40 for the cover and that includes polishing and the manifold is $60 plus shipping. Turn around time is shipping back and forth plus a day or two max to do the work.

I am selling the bar in the BM, because apparently the type-s one and the base model differ a tiny bit on the driver side holders. Let me know and we can work something out, either you can buy it outright or I can swap with you and just use the bar as a trade in which seems like a good idea if there is any interest for the type-s guys.

50 plus shipping for the valve covers has me sold. But only if you can find a color.
Either this, or im getting them copper plated somewhere. That lets you know what kind of color/reflection etc Im looking for.

Damn. If I were local I'd get my type s wheels powdercoated.

Any chance you do mounting and balancing of tires? I might be heading up to NJ in the coming weeks...would need to have the tires taken off.
