I should get pics of my powder coated Ark Grip today

zefaulter · 07-08-2013, 09:17 AM

It should look awesome

Z_bro · 07-08-2013, 07:50 PM

just got these back from the powder coater today... They turned out amazing black with the burnt tips... Not sure I am going to mount them because I still want the FI ( I think). If they don't sell I am just going to mount these...

Win win

That looks sweet! Very nice indeed

I just got back from the powdercoater myself, they quoted me $80 to do my strut bar and tow hook pearl white to match my car. Does that sound like a good price to you? This is my first time getting anything powdercoated.

Sounds pretty good to me...It maybe a tad high but I mean we are talking $10-15 dollars. I decided to coat the rims I got from you because my 19's turned out soooooooo amazing I wanted to keep them. So I am taking the
20's in tomorrow to be coated. I will take my tow hook as well just to see what the quote me! Check out my 19's I sold them soon as I posted the pic! I also attached the 20's because these look so bland next to my sexy 19's I was like that's it back to the coater!

Finally my stickers are here. The body shop had them for two weeks put them in my file and forgot. They found them today... Now DIY painted calipers are complete....

Now I will take these back to the bodyshop pick up my 20's and take them to the powder coater....

Huck · 07-08-2013, 10:41 PM

true that, I'll look forward to pics once they're done! As far as the powdercoating goes for me, as long as it's under $100 for those two things I'm happy. I may also have him do my Stillen intakes as well, not sure yet...

Your price for the tow hook and strut bar was solid. I paid $30 dollars for my tow hook....

Z_bro · 07-08-2013, 11:31 PM

I was thinking the same for the intakes cause mine got delivered today...But I can spend money in a lot of other places first

Z_bro · 07-10-2013, 07:02 AM

I am going to try to build my own GT wing out of assorted parts... This will be fun!

Z_bro · 07-11-2013, 07:47 PM

So INGs z power wouldn't sell the mounts etc separately (not shocked the mounts is the only cool part of their wing)

but APR did

. So I just bought all the mounting brackets and GTC 300 wing end plates. I bought an used carbon blade off ebay a guy bought a car and it came with it. The brackets were broken so that's why I bought all the APR brackets and wing end plates. I will finish it off with everything sprayed gloss black. All the parts cost me $350 shipped. So if my home made wing turns out like crap Ill sell it on craigs list and prob make my money back or I will find a civic at night and mounted for free and video tape the lucky winner and have it go viral on youtube

I know my wing is not going to give me proper downforce etc but I'm bored and it seemed like a fun project!

Yes I know rice comments are coming (i'm confident with my inner rice)

Edited from earlier post because I found a cheap carbon blade...

Z_bro · 07-13-2013, 01:41 PM

Body shop just needs to add the Shine auto s-spec front lip then next week they will be prep'n for paint. The pics they take are small but in one I like the blue in my headlights against the Black Cherry!

Z_bro · 07-14-2013, 12:54 AM

Found a guy on ebay selling his carbon wing... He bought a used car and it was on it and he removed. I offered him a $100 shipped...He didn't know brand but I was ok with that because I just needed the blade I already have the APR mounts and Wing end plates. Bad pic because the ebay mouse over pics save small and it got blurry when I made it bigger.
