@Mikerocosms

You should copy/past the entire post into its own post with its own header so it doesn't get lost on page 4736 of the WHYDTYTT page

 

Yeah... until he drills a hole in your washer reservoir.

 

It's finally done. Off to get powdercoated tomorrow!!

 

How much does it cost to powder coat that? Wouldn't it be better to bed line it?

 

Fair enough. I've always considering this a needle.



And this a roller.



Since usually rollers are two pieces that need pressed in and needles tend to be just one.

But yea basically the same

I like to leave my mark

 

You fab those summit bars your self they look fatter than relentless. I like it NICE

 

Got a guy doin it for $100

No they are from @RelentlessFab

 

Hmm ya you could put bed liner on to less then that.

 

Well then, you just proved yourself wrong. The ECGS bushing replaces a needle bearing in the drivers side of the diff.

 

I want it powdercoated

 

$100 is a steal! Not having to deal with clean up of bed liner? that's a win right there. I swear I get that shit on me just ordering it over the 'net.

Not to mention how bad bed liner paint smells. I like using it, but it does have its disadvantages.

 

We're a mask. And a suit.

 

@LSC15 if I could get things powder coated for that price I would do it. You cant go wrong with the durability of powder coating.

 

Looks good

 

Haven't you seen my armor? There wouldn't be any powder coating left. And then after you scrape half of it off you have to hassle with trying to match paint colors to powdercoat. If you wheel just paint your armor.

 

Powder coating has its place.

But it's not on shit that gets scratched up.

Above the truck like light mounts, bed racks, etc it's perfect. Underneath the truck where it gets abused it'll still scratch off.

 

Got my switchback pods in the mail today, they should replace the old turn signals nicely and provide me with a decent DRL too.

 

Who's talking about armor... Yes I've seen your bumper. But most bumpers are black and easy to color match not like yours. I'm pretty sure he's not going to beat up his like you do yours. Plus I have more then armor under the truck or around it. Like a bed cage. There are things I would get powder coated. And I would powder coat a bumper if it was a good price. Plus I know all your doing is and . Now stop dicking around and get back to the front range so we can go wheeling.
