    I painted my procharger bracket with some chrome paint. Just sanded it down good and sprayed a few coats.. turned out pretty good. A lot better than they did look. Only thing is when I get my dirty fingers on them its hard to clean it off. I also did the valve covers, oil pan, belt tensioner, timing pointer, and a few other brackets. Heres some pics for ya too :D

    Well, I got my bracket back from Lee (bumblebee03) tonight. The turn-around time was next to nothing as the bracket spent most of it's time in shipping (PA to CO then back to PA) The bracket looks fantastic! Lee's customer service is outstanding and he even sent me a personalized letter thanking me for my business!! That's a very classy touch and it really says alot about himself and how he runs his business.

    I would recommend Lee to anyone who wants to get something powder coated. He defenitely has my future business....without question!

    Sean, I went with a satin black. It should really set the head unit off! If I can borrow a friend's digi cam, I'll take a few pics when I have the blower mounted back up.

    Cool, I took the lazy way out any just sprayed the cast brackets with a few coats of gloss black. The bare alum. tends get pretty nasty no matter how clean you try to keep it.
