It's not cheapQuote:

What would you recommend for some recently purchased 460 swap headers? something in black of course
ken can you clear the carbid black. the color on the diff cover. thinking about the wheels on the cts-v. if so can you make a sample
I finally got someone to do a matte black. Everyone wants gloss, satin or one of the wrinkles and this is the first time I've done matte. I think it looks damn sweet. The owner is going for a stealth stock look on his bb chevy jet boat.:evilgrin:

Alan I could clear the carbide but I'm a little afraid it will look like you rhino lined your wheels. If you are going for a sinister look check out the pic of the tuscan matte black I just posted on the v/c's and intake. That color would look really good on those wheels.Quote:

Kenny pm me a price to powder coat 2 10 hole rims this flat black. I am leaving for Hawaii in one month so I will be doing it as soon as I get back. If you can wait until then I can drop off those valve covers and did you still want the GT sway bar?
Here some stuff for one of them Jap hot rod v8's:lol:

Man that flat black looks killer. It would awesome to use on some wheels with a polished lip.
Yeah they would look even better with a matte black center and a gloss black lip.
Just out of curiousity...If I brought you a worn out pair of LT headers for an Fbody...could you make them new again? LOL.
Depends if they fit in my blast cabinet?
Hell I dunno. I was just wondering if that would be a better option than buying new nice headers. I have no clue on dimensions, they're pacesetter LT's for a 98-02 camaro z28.
Well longtubes are usually around $300 to do so if they are rough it may be cheaper to buy new

Started getting the bike together.....touching every bolt while it's been apart. Replaced all bearings and working to get the engine in. Kenny, I can't thank you enough.....this thing is going to turn out sweet.
Damn since the board has been messed up I've been missing some posts. The bike is looking awesome, I can't wait to see it all together. That may be one of the coolest things I've done so far.:bigthumb
I've been enjoying a slow period lately but finally had some work I had to get done. Here is another KTM frame in mirror orange and an old beat up mini bike frame in mirror red, silver sparkle on the handle bars and wheels/chain gaurd in ult chrome/acrylic clear. It was pretty pitted but turned out looking way better.

Very nice! Marks KTM will look sick
Thanks again for the referal Bo. I left a message for Mark but if you talk to him make sure he knows its done. Surprised you didn't want to paint it for him.
I showed him the pic, he was very happy with the turn around time. said he got your message, Im sure by now he has called. I need some stuff done too but its riding season now so will get with you in the fall. As far as painting it, Id love too but pc stays on alot better and he will put it to the test.lol
Some 3v covers from today before and after. Color is called ruby red.

Thanks Kenny for the great powed coat work on my 10 holes! They look FANTASTIC!!
I'll get some pics posted up today.
Here are some pics of the 10 holes in the chrome. They actually look better in person than in the pics. Also a quad frame I did today in mirror white.

The ult chrome is suppose to be the shiniest of the chromes
Here is some vette wheels that were chrome that I did in auto charcoal met. w/ sd clear over top of it. Customer picked them up last night so I did not get a chance to get a pic in the sun but they looked sweet. I also did another set of Ford wrinkle blue covers but I'm sure you guys are sick of seeing those.

If I wasn't such a stickler for keeping my parts the way they came off my car (idk I'm anal like that)... I'd have my Tri-Bar wheels off my '94 done exactly that way... with a chrome center. :bigthumbQuote:

Putting together another box of parts for you. Will hopefully have everything by next week, will pm when I ship.
I didn't even take a pic of them. I knocked them out really late the night before and then was in a big hurry to get them to Craig in the morning and forgot to even take a pic. Craig will have them at the shop today so you will see them soon enough. Thanks again and I will definately get pics of the rear end.Quote:

Sorry it took so long to reply I was out late last night helping a friend work on a car. Anyway after look back thru alot of posts on a powder forum I'm on I finally found the pic. I was thinking the guy had a better one than this but it was all I can find. At least it should give you and idea but keep in mind this is a 22" wheel with a very defined lip so that helps.Quote:

I dont know how hard it would be to do, and if it varies from wheel to wheel, but could you PM me a price on powder coating 4 wheels in black.
Thanks, im just looking to get a general idea of what it would cost.
I would need to know what size and style wheel you have also do you want matte, satin or gloss black?Quote:

I had planned on doing my stuff in satin black but decided at the last minute i wanted to do some retro stock looking colors and try for a stockish look.
Find me some!! Last set I saw on Craigslist were for $300 and I almost fell out of my chair laughing!!!! you can't hardly GIVE those wheels away and people are trying to get 3-400 out of them just because they are a 5 lug 17" mustang wheel...Quote:
