if i was u i would send ur stuff to pappy. he does great work and his prices are good. but if u are going to paint ur parts, make sure they are sandblasted or sand really good. paint doesnt hold up all that good compared to powerder coat. i painted my pegs on my 300 a year ago and they turned out like chit compaered to my friends 300 who gots his pc'd. dont make the same mistake i did on painting the pegs.

go to your local auto shop that sells car paint not the spray paint actual car paint ppg arcrylic enamal if u got a decent air compresser and a gun its not as good as powder coat but it does hold good if u prep it right :cool: :cool: i can get pints for 6 bucks at my local shop alot of colors to choose from a pint goes along ways this is the omni line not as good as ppg but hold up pretty good

Like some of the others said get them powdercoated. It sill take a long time for PC to wear off, alot longer than paint:macho
