Powder coated oem TOW HOOK

Powder coated my tow hook weekend while i was doing a side job. The tow hook was dark to begin with and i probably should have used some Argent Silver on it first but didnt feel like switching powders.

let me know what you think. May try to start doing these for members.

Here are some pics of the ones ive done:

colors i have: (goto eastwoodco.com for examples)

* Architectural Bronze (10226)
* Gold (10163)
* Argent Silver (10102)
* Cast Iron (10095)
* Stamped Steel (10099)
* Cast Aluminum (10097)

Translucent red //no longer offered, may be able to get some in the future
Gloss Black
Translucent Blue
Mirror red
Translucent Purple
Project Mu teal
Gloss black with argent silver sparkle

All translucent colors should have an argent silver base coat. It looks better.

sent you guys some pms.

Heres what im thinking:
15 shipped if i have the color on hand
20 shipped if i have to order the custom color (they cost over 13 shipped)
22.50 if you want a translucent color that requires a base coat (argent silver base)

All hooks would get 2 coats minimum and may get a third. All i do for prep is clean and preheat. I mask off the threads as shown to protect them. Turnaround time is the weekend. I would ship them all back out on monday.

This looks great, nice work! But I must say we're all completely nuts with this modding thing! Why not powder coat the jack and lug wrench and make it a set?
