Default Powdercoating in Indiana?
Anyone know of a good powdercoating place in northern or central Indiana or southern Michigan? My step dad needs have this white ZR1's redone for his 30th Ann. SS so I thought I'd see if anyone had experience with anyone locally. He could get them painted, but I thought powdercoating might be the better option. Thanks guys.

Check with ProStrip in Fort Wayne, IN. They do good work, they powdercoated my brake calipers and brackets. Also, my dad had weight equipment powdercoated their and they always did good work on them. There has been weight equipment in local schools, colleges, and even Wood Youth Center that has been powdercoated by them.
