Message About a year ago I bought 2lbs each of Chrome powder, Translucent red, and super gloss clear to do a friends street bike wheels. I severely overestimated how much I'd need and wound up only using about 1/2 lb each of the chrome and red, and maybe a couple ounces of the clear.

I want to use this powder up soon before it goes bad, so I'll knock down my normal prices a bit for these colors.

For whatever reason I've been having slight durability problems with the chrome powder. It marks up easier than I think it should. For this reason, I'll only use the chrome powder with a clear topcoat. The downside is that the clear slightly reduces the reflectiveness of the chrome, and it looks more like a bright, reflective silver.

The trans. red, when applied over the chrome, makes a candy red.

I'm 93daytona on 3zc, and my ebay username is wakebrdr12786 if you'd like some seller feedback.

Here's some parts done in chrome w/ a clear topcoat:

and here's the candy red:


Prices(includes media blasting, shipping not included). I'll call chrome w/ a clear topcoat "bright silver". The candy red price includes a chrome basecoat, translucent red midcoat, and a clear topcoat.

Part Price (Bright Silver / Candy Red)

upper plenum - $80/$110
balance tube - $35/$50
Hard NA intake pipes - $20/$35
Coil Pack brackets (all 6) - $15/$25
Upper and Lower water pipes - $20/$35

Shoot me an email for prices on other parts.
