Question powder coating subframe connectors

I bought my slp imitation subframe connectors on ebay. Anyone have an idea on how much it would cost to get them powder coated?

If they are weld in, i would just paint them after you weld them in. You will have to grind the powdercoat off the area being welded anyways.

My guy here in GA would prolly do it for $40 or $50. I didnt have time to wait so I just painted mine. 1 coat of primer and 3 coats of red high dollar paint. If you paint them, do I off of the car much easier. All I did was masked off the weld areas with tape. I dont know why no one else does this, much easier and cleaner than trying to paint them on the car. That's just STUPID! Mask them off before you powder coat too.

Powdercoating isn't very expensive. Look up a shop in your local yellow pages.

So are the fakes good quality? I've seen them for sale on ebay before, and have always been skeptical.

How much are the fakes? Im pretty sure you cant beat the price of the UMI ones. $139 powdercoated.
