    $50 for a 2.5lb tub of powdercoat that I haven't even used all of yet. Plus hours and hours of my sandblasting and powdercoating time.

    Powdercoating is cheap because I'm doing most of it myself. The only things I didn't do were the things that won't fit in our oven - engine support, sway bars and track bar.

    Especially if you have the correct spraying tools, and an oven. But even if you don't, it doesn't cost all that much to have even a shop do it for you.

    Soon. I'm waiting on a shipment of LS3 inventory to Katech and then I'll buy one. Also trying to spread my costs out. I've been spending A LOT of money lately.

    This is the best third gen lower control arm I've ever seen if I do say so myself. Fresh bushings and ball joint, sandblasted and powdercoated.



    Got the big parts back from the powdercoater. I had to send these out because they're too big for our oven. The engine support is beautiful and you can also see the rear sway bar here.



    Freshly powdercoated 1LE front sway bar. It looks better than new.

    I'm running an LS3 with ETC so that will be for the C6 Corvette ETC gas pedal.
