Default Powdercoating frenzy!!

Hey guys,

Going to go crazy with powdercoat here in the next couple weeks. Sponser on here named silverghost (thepowderpro.com) does some great work. I had him do a TB for me. I am now going to be sending him my ls6 intake, valve covers, zr1 wheels, and all 4 calipers. His prices are very fair and work is great. Can't wait to get these parts to him and back on the car. I will post pics as soon as I get the parts back.

Sean does great work you won't be disappointed. He did intakes,valve covers, tb's, TNT rings and coil pack brackets for my buddy and I. Everything looked excellent.

Here is some of the stuff he did for me.

Did you or him sand your FAST down smooth DopeFed? I ordered a ported FAST from Ron@Vengeance and was thinking of powdercoating it black and making the box w/ FAST and 92mm white from SilverGhost

That looks great. I'm going for a similar theme with black pewter metallic and silver. My fuel rails as going to be polished (Nasty rails) and then my coil pack covers and FAST are going to be black pewter metallic. I went with black anodized -AN fittings as well and silver lines.



I'll have better pics this weekend.

you guys are gonna make me blush lol.

thanks alot for the props, I care alot about my work so its nice to hear.

02 Double--the powder smooths the FAST surface somewhat but not totally. I can however smooth the runners, like this one I did for Nitro Dave which i shaved the lettering off,too. Black with white letters like you mentioned is no problem.

Sean does great work and his prices are fair. The product is also delivered when promised or in my case for ready for pick-up when promised. I still have to bring you my valvecovers and coil brackets.
