    sup guys, i figure a bunch of hawaii dudes use DJM control arms to lower da fronts (this is for a XR), my question is if so, how many of u guys decided to powdercoat the arms first, and from where? i kno a lotta people use mekala's for PC'ing...

    since the issue is the shitty quality of the original finish on the DJM pieces, do u find that it's worth it to have the arms re-finished ? i notice a lotta mainland guys do it to fight rust, etc.. but they also drive on salted roads through winters. (yes i realize we're around salt areas too surrounded by ocean)

    also if u did get em coated, how much $ was it to do?

    thanks

    If you want just rust protection just do a good rattle can job. Will save you money and with comparable results
