Anybody have any pics of any parts powdercoated different blues, because i have black plastics and want to powdercoat frame blue or metallic grey. Post pics of different blues to give me an idea of which would look good with black?

or any other color you think would look good!

I also have black plastic for the R I am building right now. I was originally going to get a red but I had the frame and swingarm done in silvervein. Also my steering stem is silvervein. No pictures of the stem but I posted some of the frame/swingarm. I've set the plastic on top of the frame a few times and it looks pretty sick...Later

That blue is the blue that Yamaha Troy uses on thier bikes. It is VERY close to Yamaha blue, alot closer than reflex blue. I am trying to find out the exact colors that the pc shop uses to do that color. Not sure on the specific name though:p

Can you get parts chrome plated? If you can is it mor expensive? i would like to get my upper a-arms and cases dipped in chrome. If you can't chrome plate them is their a similiar powdercoat color?

Yes you can get parts chrome plated but it is more expensive. There are chrome powders but IMO I dont think they are near as nice as real chrome:)
