Thanks, I,ve done it before, I was just thinking if I could get it done professionally it would be more durable and maybe a little more customized (flames or something) than I could do. Thank you for the offer.

Might check with Bruce Raymond at Raymond's Performance. I know he offers hydro dipping and does a fantastic job. I've seen it in person and it's neat stuff. Last time I was there, he showed me an LS1 intake he did in carbon fiber (with a clear coat). His site doesn't show any examples yet, but I think he's working on it.

Thanks guys, I would like to find someone fairly local to do some airbrushing or powdercoating but if that fails I,ll probably paint it myself.

I'm pretty sure the shop lightly sanded it first.
