Any painted Strut Bar out there???
I'm thinking about getting my strut bar powder-coated black. Does anyone got their strut bar painted or powder-coated. Please share some pics. Thanks

The strut bar is powdercoated. The engine cover is painted. Just used some adhesive promoter + krylon fusion blue. The infiniti emblem is just a satin black. The taping takes longer than the painting haha.

I didn't paint mine, I sanded the chrome off to give it that raw metal look. Just another idea if you decide not to paint or powder coat.

Thanks GraphiteG37S for sharing your pics. It have a different look to it in a good way. I'm going for all black and carbon fiber theme for the engine bay. I'm going to do my engine cover wet lay carbon fiber when it is black and leave the middle silver-gray.
