valve covers painted

vertcobra99 · 06-26-2007, 08:31 AM

where can i get my valve covers painted for a good price?

and how much does it usually cost

The plastic ones? Just a solid color? My co-worker paints pretty good, I'll ask him. You supply the paint, he will do the labor or both?

Jody, pretty sure they'll be aluminum, since it's a 4V.

+1 on the color, I'm painting Will's intake right now and it's coming out pretty good! I'll post pics later after I get the clear laid down.

Forgot he had a 4V...

Mike, (aka the source) posted a thread that he knew a guy who did powder coating for cheap, but the choices were black and silver as of now.

Otherwise, there is the other Mike (aka 1quickgt) or like that, who runs a paint shop in Houston... if you wanted to ship em.

Saw your car at Lethal today... it's missing something...

looked to be on a serious diet.

I get powder coating done all the time. Turnaround time is 1 to 2 days. They did Danny's cage in one day

Prices vary. Vertcobra99 ask Danny. Your always at the shop anyway! LMAO

I was going to suggest that (powdercoating)
I can do small items (up to what fits in a kitchen oven size)
Usually charge $50/piece.
