How do you like my powder coated head light and dash? Have you ever seen anything like it?

It looks really good.

Did you have to do any prep work to get the powder coat to stick to chrome?

No prep work but the heat proof tape was high. It stuck really good. I did not prep it cause if it would not worked out i could have always stripped it off of my high dollar big dog light.

   Not my thing but hopefully it works.  have just heard not good things about PC being applied to chrome.  Wanting a bunch of my chrome PCed black and have been told it would be iffy for a good bond. 
  I do like the black wheels though!  8)

You know the front wheel is chiped in 2 spots and its crome under it. The chips came fron trying to put my own tire on >:( you can actually see it in that photo at the bottom of the wheel. But they have been powder coated for 5 years with no problem, the chip has been there 2 years.

Very nice. Adds that personal touch that makes it unique and good looking.
