Ok, Guys,

I have had some hi quality powder coats attempted in my time, most come out looking good, but a little thin like stove paint but more even.

This time I went to a local place that had an A1 rep.
Anyone living in SE UK. Is welcome to a referral just message me.

Its so good it looks like its still wet!..

In fact I took a photo, (not very good) hopefully you can get an idea of how THICK it is Smile I feel very boastful about it Smile Sorry !

Cheers Everyone
Jake

I think cheap...

including swinging arm and side stand and brake tie £75.

(Included etch primer but I had the blasting done by the same god of blast cleaning that did the engine vapour clean ..you've seen that already...

Hopefully '61 I didnt over pay?

Very pleased though ..

All I needs a flipping front mudguard Smile
