Got my bits back from powder coaters and am over the moon with the quality of the work, and the price. I paid £70 for the lot shot blasted and painted up in different colours

Well, the painter said two weeks and it was.

 

Sorry about the pics but it was 11pm last night so light was not so good

 

For £1500 i was hoping for a half decent job. The cost of the materials came to £400

 

The job i actually got was superb, he has painted the whole car including stone chipping the inside and engine bay which looks awesome

The bonnet is still at the painters drying and he has better light so you can have an idea what the car looks like. The grooves look spot on

I love the cage wrapped up in tape saying "Fragile". I thought they were supposed to be tough? Made me laugh anyways. :D
