Just picked it up. I am really happy with the job they did. They masked off all the bolt holes and hose fittings. There is a slight texture to it - I didn't want a glossy red. Off to install it! 8)

Noice! How much? When did you take it in? I like that red, not quite like the MSM, like I want. But it looks good.
That looks awesome!! :cheers: :mrgreen:
Who did the work?
Is that Pink? :P
Yeah sort of :cat: dont you think?Quote:

Where did you have it done, and how much did you pay? I've got to replace my cam cover gasket, and I've been wanting to powdercoat mine a textured black. Might as well have it powdercoated while I'm replacing the gasket, since I'm lazy and don't want to do it twice. :mrgreen:
I took it to www.topkoat.com , right down the street from Mazda-Nissan Heaven in Mansfield. He charged me $100 (cash) out the door. I dropped it off last Thursday or Friday and it was ready today. He told me 5 working days at the most. Here it is in the car.

I think it looks great too, I am planning on doing mine eventually, but to match my crazy wheels.
On the 99's it was a rough texture, does that affect things? should it be sanded down to paint?....I am planning on doing the intake as well, also like that TCB price Kaggs got on his.;)
I actually talked to that guy. He used the do-it-yourself stuff (Hercules?) and it is about 3 years old. He says it has stayed on with no problems.Quote:
