sebsescort Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 any bodyshop will offer powdercoating as long as they have a low bake oven its a piece of pee apparantly, and not expensive at all. the most i have ever been quoted to get a cam cover powder coated was £60 and that was throughout 6 quotes, the least was £30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
