Re: Upper Stress Bar yub puorg

Picked mine up from Simon last night. Looks really nice as-is, but off to the powder coaters for me . Ryan, can I get the Nutsert tool from you when you are done? Or, do you want to install them together? Either way, but I probably won't get to mine this weekend as my sister is getting married on Saturday.

...but off to the powder coaters for me .

Powder coating aluminum destroys the temper of the part. This means it will not have the strength as designed (and un-tempered aluminum is like butter). This is because the part is heated after the powder is applied. I wouldn't recommend doing it to anything aluminum (unless you get it properly heat treated after). Only steel can be safely powder coated without post heat treatment. Welded aluminum has the same problem.

But if you are just going for show then by all means fly at it!

Yea, I actually realized this last night. Even though it will be mostly for looks, I still don't want to ruin the part....probably just use high-heat, flexi-paint.

Re: Upper Stress Bar yub puorg

Hey Ryan (or Brent), did you use the Nutsert Tool yet? Can I grab it from you?

Re: Upper Stress Bar yub puorg

Its high polish aluminum, pretty much the most desirable finish, why do you want to paint it?!?!
