    talked to advanced powdercoating in the valley today. He said he estimated doing my bumper would be $225-250. Sound about right to anyone? He also said it may be cheaper if we dropped off multiple bumpers with him at once, so that's something to consider.

    I was going to bed line it, but I changed my mind today lol.

    They do a cash and beer discount. Depending on timelines i may get my rack coated as well, I have some other stuff that needs doing anyhow. I paid 200 i believe for my bumpers.

    Good to know. I'll be looking to do it as soon as I can because I don't really have a place to store it other than the back of my truck...hopefully it fits haha.

    Since I don't have all the lights I plan on for the bumper, if I drill out mounting holes out after I powdercoat the bumper, will I have to get the holes re-powder coated or can I just do a few coats of paint my self so the holes don't rust out?

    So anyone else getting a little frustrated? I know that he is doing us favor by crating it all and shipping it together. I just wish it wasn't taking 2 months past the estimated delivery.

    Meh. You've been waiting longer than most of us so it's understandable to be upset. I'm not too worried, but yes, I'd love to have it soon.

    Update:
    Billy is working hard to get the stuff out the door. He switched to a different supplier for some of his stuff and its taken awhile to get the transition done as well as get them up to speed. Looks like it will probably be at the end of the month until we see anything.

    Yeah me too! I will say that living in Alaska has already greatly improved my patience. Having lived in the lower 48 all my life I now see that my patience was non-existent. HA!
