Mine's £160 for chassis, wishbones, uprights, rollbar, pedal box, all the little odds and sods you find that need doing, including engine pulleys etc. and that includes blasting them before coating. If you go for a common colour, such as satin black, most powder coaters will do the work on a time spent basis, so if they are doing some other work in the same colour, they'll put yours through at the same time. It saves them down time cleaning the gun and changing colours etc, and the saving will be passed onto you.

Like spud said, once you add the cost of good paint, prep etc, powdercoating becomes good value. If you get a good finish, it will outlast anything else. Be warned though, if your powdercoater doesnt prep properly, and the coating chips, rust will form under the coating ver quickly.

Hope that helps

Adrian
