Message I'm really torn right now between rattle canning my stuff and getting it powdercoated. For my plenum, balance tube, valve covers, and front water pipes, I was quoted $200 with a 1 week turnaround. I really don't want to rattle can my stuff because I know it doesn't last but I am still tempted to do it on some stuff if any of it will last. I know the valve covers don't see a lot of interaction so I can't see high temp paint just falling off of it or getting chipped. The balance tube is also easy to remove. Do you guys think I could get away with only having the plenum and water pipes done or is this non-negotiable? I don't want rework but I also don't have a lot of cash to splurge with.

Never Play Leapfrog With A Unicorn!!!

Do yourself a favor and just worry about your own car. I don't see what everyone is so worried about anyway. If someone else wants to perform a modification that you believe will destroy the value, cheapen the Z32 or whatever you can't sit on your hands about, wouldn't that make your tastefully-modified, white bread Z32 more rare and valuable? -- BradZ (FL) on December 23, 2007 at 12:19 PM
