powdercoating is not really needed, you would have to take the whole thing apart but this way they sanded off the silver and then re-painted it ferrari red and then applied the sticker and then clear coated so it looks factory.....
i was torn between yellow and red but decided to go red...it'll look nice behind the new wheels........

Looks great Alex
...finally, after so much discussion on these things...
Actually it would have been better to take it apart before painting, or else you might have problems taking it apart when you want to...anyways, too late now....
One question, why did you go for that shade of red instead of the Brembo red? Something different? Looks sharp nonetheless...the white turned out really well.
