Does anyone know where locally I could get something powdercoated? I'm willing to drive to have it done. Or I could be convinced to send it thru mail. But I was hoping somewhere in the Twin Cities, someone knows where one could have something powdercoated. Thanks alot!

Holy Crap! $160! No way. People have said it only cost like 30$ to get the fuel door powdercoated. So thats what I was aiming for...LOL I don't want to screw it up. If I do it, I want it done by someone who knows what they are doing and won't screw it up. LOL

Pitch Black had it done somewhere in Plymouth. I thought he said he just searched the web. I'm sure he'll reply when he sees this thread.

Ok, I found one of the closest places is in Mankato. I emailed them.

Is there anything special I need to know about having this done? Protective fineshing, etc. I've never had anything powdercoated. And I have no idea, all I know is I want it black. LOL
