ya i think springs or somebody on the boards was selling a powdercoating machine just a lil while ago... well Mike from the boards was gonna buy it and we were gonna do my interior but he decided not to at the time. BUT.... Mike told me he is gonna buy a powdercoating machine sometime in the future... so if u wanted to wait i guess he could do it...

It's not possible to powder coat billet interior pieces?

If I'm not mistaken there was someone on here that had the bezel ring by the shifter powdercoated.

billet yes anything that is metal. the powder is sprayed out of the machine with an electric charge so the powder sticks to the metal and the piece you are spraying must also be grounded or the powder wont stick. then the piece is put in an oven at 400 for 20 mins to cure. as soon as it cools your good to go. i did powdercoatin for a few years

I'm not too far away in Hackensack.

I was kinda taken it for granted that you didnt have billet in the interior, since most of us dont
