$300 for powdercoat and $200 for paint both sound like good deals to me. you truck is finally going to look swee with the bumpers and those new wheels. can't wait to see it.

I'd go with the paint over powder coat as well. Even though the powder coat would hold up better, no way they'd be able to get as close a match as paint. Congrats on the mod!

yeah if the powdercoat is a direct match it still wont have the same shine as a paintjob would. This winter im having him do the frame and rims on my bike wet black. Thats the only color that would have the same shine as a regular paint job. the guy that i had do it lives close to me and has his own oven and everything. He did a great job, lol i guess he had to cause i knew where he lives
