Hello all,

Mods if I am posting in the wrong place accept my apologies, and relocate to the correct section.

I have a Graphite Shadow (KAD) sedan, and am currently in the process of getting my Stillen GenIII tubes Powder coated as well as the GTSpec Strut bar Brackets Powdercoated to match. The colors I have in mind are either a deep glossy burgundy, or a burnt copper. I am open to all suggestions as I dont have a set color in mind that will blend well, and pop at the same time.

Thank you all in advance.

 

Burnt copper is definitely a nice color. I prefer a little flashy on the inside than the outside

 

Are you planning on painting your engine cover in the future? If so then I think the copper would get the nod. Here's a nice bay w/ those colors

 

Wow! That looks amazing! Thanks blnewt! This definitely has my full attention. I'm meeting with the guy tomorrow to go over some samples.

 

Reach out to Connor, he had his Takeda long-tube pipes powdercoated. Actually, I think he did the work himself.

When you go to the shop to talk about this, see if they have any samples of "Black Chrome". I had a lot of engine bay pieces powdercoated in that color on my last car. It's an amazing look... not quite paint, not quite metallic.

Here's an example; these were the water pipes on my old Maxima, powdercoated in black chrome:

 

Hmmm I've never thought about painting the engine bay but I'm running out of ideas and this is good. ok time to add it to my future mod list lolz
