On their website they have a couple samples that were done in a pink, but of course photos dont always do it justice.. I guess we will see what they say. Maybe I'll just do everything white... but then that's boring! lol

I would think they could do it in pink. It would probably be best to have it all done at once so that they all match.

That's a very good point.. I never thought about that. With it being such a hard color, just do it all at once and get it over with.

That was my point about having downtime and not being able to use the car for a while. It's cheaper, easier and you'll be sure to get the same color if you do everything all at once. Look up RxMotorsports, and ask Mike Barnett about powdercoating.

I say just use regular paint. It'll stand up. My Plastic parts and Tower bar are still looking good.

The problem is the springs and the swaybar will be flexing and they are under the car.

Yes yes. True about the springs. Can you even see the sway. Might not be worth it to paint it.

Yeah.. i'm starting to think the sway bar is going to be a waste of time to get painted.. but the springs are going to be either white or pink... Josh already said he would help me with my calipers and they will definantely be pink..

At least on my car, you have to REALLY be looking to see the springs.

If you are going to do an accent color (like the pink you've already started with) go with it. Don't mix and match white into the mix.
