lol.....that thread was before my time....but some good info. you can "cook" the powder at a much lower temp you just have to increase the cook time. i have not tried a set of stock arms....but if teh boots were removed...and then cooked i cant see where a temperature of say 325 for 30 mins will hurt the ball joint. this is a very do-able process but would only allow for the application of one color powder. if anyone has a set they want me to try.....send 'em.

Its not worth all that work. Just paint them and call it done. If it wears juts paint it again.
