Unanswered: PowderCoated Bumpers

Has anyone powdercoated the GT Bumpers gloss or matte Black? If so, how did they turn turn out? Any Pictures saved in an album?

Not sure I would like them but just curious if it had been done. I have an extra rear set that the PO spray painted silver to try to cover the scratches and paint from when he tried to paint the body aafter repairs. I was tempted to sacrifice them since they are not much good as they are. Just checking to see if it had already been done before potentially wasting money.

Check some of Blancojp's recent posts and pictures about a "Hotrod GT" for sale on E-Bay. I think you can still view the pictures of the car on e-bay. He has/had a white one with black powder coated bumpers. Very nice!

I like semi-gloss black for trim parts. Powder coating shop labeled his color, "Sable Black."
