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 can also get many other colors if you'd like, but the prices may be slightly higher, depending on what color you'd like.

I'm 93daytona on 3zc (here), 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 or colors. If you'd like to get multiple items done the same color, I may be able to knock a bit off the total.
